This is what the decorator is for, so that your do not have to put this code
in your view.
The redirect_field_name is used if you want to use a value other than 'next'
for the name of the query string parameter that holds the value to be
redirected to. So, if I decorate a view with:
@login_required(redirect_field_name='martha')
def index(request, model_name):
and try to access that view (happens to be at /puzzles/) when not logged in,
I get redirected to (on my local testserver):
http://localhost:8000/accounts/login/?martha=/puzzles/
I doubt you really want to change redirect_field_name, it is not the name
but the value of the variable that you want to vary by view, and that is
what is automatically done by the @login_required decorator. Just use it
with no parameters.
