I am adding settings.py, root url and views.py. After login user is redirected to respective dashboard. In this situation, if user is pressing back button or changing url to accounts/login, then also it should remain on the dashboard page only. I am using django-registration-redux
settings.py
REGISTRATION_OPEN = True
ACCOUNT_ACTIVATION_DAYS = 7
REGISTRATION_AUTO_LOGIN = False
REGISTRATION_FORM = 'signin.forms.MyRegForm'
LOGIN_REDIRECT_URL = '/signin/user_sign/'
views.py
def user_sign(request):
obj = UserSelection.objects.get(user=request.user)
if obj.user_type == 'candidate':
return redirect('candidate:cand_dash')
else:
return redirect('employer:employer_dash')
urls.py
from django.conf.urls import url, include
from django.contrib import admin
from django.conf import settings
from signin.regbackend import MyRegistrationView
from django.contrib.auth import views as auth_views
urlpatterns = [
url(r'^$', auth_views.LoginView.as_view(template_name='registration/login.html'), name='home'),
url(r'^accounts/register/$', MyRegistrationView.as_view(), name='registration_register'),
url(r'^accounts/', include('registration.backends.default.urls')),
url(r'^candidate/', include('candidate.urls')),
url(r'^employer/', include('employer.urls')),
url(r'^signin/', include('signin.urls')),
]
You could use a Boolean variable authenticated
.
Then you should need to set it as False
before the user Authentication.
def registration(request):
authenticated = False
...
Then after the user's authentication just change the var as authenticated = True
Finally every time you need to know if user is authenticated just use if user.authenticated
Also, if you need to use authenticated a lot take a look at custom decorators (https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/2.0/topics/http/decorators/) maybe they could help you.
