get_user(request)
[source]
Returns the user model instance associated with the given request
’s session.
It checks if the authentication backend stored in the session is present in AUTHENTICATION_BACKENDS
. If so, it uses the backend’s get_user()
method to retrieve the user model instance and then verifies the session by calling the user model’s get_session_auth_hash()
method.
Returns an instance of AnonymousUser
if the authentication backend stored in the session is no longer in AUTHENTICATION_BACKENDS
, if a user isn’t returned by the backend’s get_user()
method, or if the session auth hash doesn’t validate.
