Hello guys! I faced a situation when auth backend needs access to request object inside of get_user auth backend function
https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/29005 I can patch it following way (function to be patched is django.contrib.auth.get_user) def get_user(request): > ...... > code > ..... > backend = load_backend(backend_path) > backend,request = request > ..... > code > ..... But I don't like this solution because I'll need to keep my eyes on this monkey patch while django upgrade, etc, and it's very dirty hack. Instead I propose to extend django behaviour using design pattern Builder to simplify integration of another apps into django object internals (it sounds hacky, but it's safe and simple to implement) with change I proposed, the patch would be done on django level, we need to add def get_user(request): > > ... > code > ... > > backend = load_backend(backend_path) > DjangoObjectBuilder.do_initialize_object(backend, request) > .... > code > .... and in another django package we subscribe to this object initialization: def add_request_to_backend(obj, request): > obj.request = request > DjangoObjectBuilder.add_custom_initializer(lambda obj: isinstance(obj, > openstack_auth.Backend), add_request_to_backend) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django developers (Contributions to Django itself)" group.
