[FIXED] How to restrict login view after user logged in?

Issue

I want to open my login view only to non logged in users. means once user is logged in, he/she can not access login view by hitting /login/ url manually.

Thanks in advance :)

Solution

You can use @user_passes_test:

from django.contrib.auth.decorators import user_passes_test

def user_is_not_logged_in(user):
    return not user.is_authenticated()

@user_passes_test(user_is_not_logged_in)
def my_view(request):
    ...

You can use @user_passes_test(user_is_not_logged_in, login_url='/') to redirect to another URL and avoid server errors.
