Yes, Django has a built-in access control and permissions system based on the User and Group models, as well as the permissions mechanism.
Main features:
- Users (User) can have specific permissions, which are set at the model level or for custom actions.
- Groups (Group) allow combining users and assigning permissions to the group, simplifying management.
- Custom permissions can be created and checked in code using methods like
user.has_perm('app_label.permission_codename'). - Access to views is often restricted using decorators like
@login_requiredand@permission_required.
Example of permission check in a view:
from django.contrib.auth.decorators import permission_required
@permission_required('app.view_model', raise_exception=True)
def my_view(request):
# view code
pass
Thus, the system allows flexible management of access to application resources.
