Prevent login at app (TAG=App Development)

[alansnow21]

Hello All,

Is there a recommended way to prevent users from accessing your app? I noticed that you cannot access the apps page without logging in. However, this does not prevent users from getting to your app if they have a url.

Thanks!

This is what I used: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.8/topics/auth/default/#django.contrib.auth.decorators.login_required

Yup. That is the way to do it. Use the login_required() decorator on your controller (i.e.: django view). There is also a permission_required() variant that can be used to selectively prevent viewing.
