自定义 Django 登录表单未登录用户

Question

I am trying to create a login page for my webapp. I am able to log users in through the official admin page, but when I use my page the request.user is not logged in.

def index(request):
    if request.method == 'POST':
        username = request.POST.get('username')
        password = request.POST.get('password')

        user = authenticate(username=username, password=password)

        if user is not None:

                login(request, user)

                return render(request, 'AllocationWebapp/browse.html', {})
        else:
            print("Invalid login details: {0}, {1}".format(username, password))
            return render(request, 'AllocationWebapp/browse.html', {'error': "Invalid login details supplied."})
    else:
        return render(request, 'AllocationWebapp/login.html', {})

user is being set correctly, but after login request.user is still AnonymousUser and not logged in.

I couldn't figure out why this wasn't working using the built in authenticate and login functions, so I used this as a workaround.

user = authenticate(username=username, password=password)

request.session['user'] = user.id

Then when I need to know if a user is logged in I just check request.
