You need to create a decorator that calls either the original
function or the decorated funtion, depending on your condition,
Something like (untested):
def conditional_login_required( f ):
_login_required = login_required()(f)
def decorated( request ):
if condition == "use-login":
return _login_required( request )
else:
return f( request )
return decorated
@conditional_login_required
def my_view(request):
pass
Replace (condition == "use-login") with whatever your "run-time
control flag" is.
