I'm extending the user profile and added a last_ip field as shown below. How do I update this field whenever a user is logged in to its current IP? I am using allauth if it matters.
class UserProfile(models.Model):
user = models.OneToOneField(User)
last_ip = models.GenericIPAddressField(protocol='IPv4', verbose_name="Last Login IP")
location = models.CharField(max_length=50, blank=True)
For actually getting the user IP address you can utilise django-ipware. There are other methods but this app seems to cover as much as possible, you can check this question for the detailed information.
Once you have the USER_IP, you can create a middleware and update the last_ip for every request
# middleware.py
class LastLoginIP(object):
def process_request(self, request):
if request.user.is_authenticated():
UserProfile.objects\
.filter(user=request.user)\
.update(last_ip=USER_IP)
# settings.py add the middleware
MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES = (
....
your.middleware.LastLoginIP
)
Alternatively, if you already set up a system that only allows one concurrent login per profile (every time user switches devices, he/she has to login again) , then you can update the last_ip during the login.
