How to check permission inside a template in Django

Question

Can I use the Auth application's permission checking inside a template in Django? (I want to display a simple form at the end of the template for privileged users)

And more importantly, should I do it at all or is this no the "Django way"?

Answer 1

Hello @kartik,

To check for permissions in templates, the following code would suffice:

{% if perms.app_label.can_do_something %}
<form here>
{% endif %}

Hope this help!!

Thank You!!
