I use the perms object in my templates.
{% if perms.app_name.fooperm %}
{% endif %}
See https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/2.0/topics/auth/default/#permissionsFrom: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of guettli Sent: Friday, December 15, 2017 8:09 AM To: Django users Subject: custom permission strings: Avoid magic strings ... Hi, We define the permission like in the docs: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.11/topics/auth/customizing/#custom-permissions To avoid the magic string 'fooapp.fooperm' in the code which uses the permission very often, I choose this solution: {{{ # file models.py class FooModel(Model): FOOPERM_PERMISSION_STRING='fooapp.fooperm' class Meta: permissions = ( ('fooperm', 'Foo Permission'), ) }}} {{{ # file views.py # This and other files use the permission string very often. ... if request.user.has_perm(FooModel.FOOPERM_PERMISSION_STRING): ... }}} But still I am not happy with the above solution. I think it looks ugly. How do you avoid the magic permission string in your code?
