Redirect user inside Class-Based views

[Rootz]

I have a small Django App using several Class-Based Views but I am contemplating how the class views would redirect a user based upon a condition? In my case I would like to redirect user who are not authenticated. Just how do I go about doing that?

thanks

As long as the class based view doesn't require you to be logged in you can achive that by doing:

def dispatch(self, request, *args, **kwargs):

    if not request.user.is_authenticated():

        return HttpResponseRedirect(reverse("url_name_to_redirect_to"))

# Continue with other dispatch functionality

You could also look into django-braces that has some mixins to handle some common operations.
