如果用户已注销，则对django @login_required视图的Ajax调用将返回登录页面

Question

If wrap a view function in @login_required and call it using $.ajax({...}) and the user has logged out (from another tab for example), the success() call back is called and the data is the content of the login page redirect.

Is there a way for the @login_required decorator to return an error code if it's an ajax request rather than a redirect, so I can correctly redirect in javascript?

This post ( What's the best way to handle session timeouts in ajax requests? ) indicated I would have to write my on @login_required decorator... Isn't there a way to handle this within the core django?

Answer 1

Check out the permission_required decorator. It can be set to return a 403 error code instead of a login page redirect.
