How to check if an existing specific user (say techxhelp) is logged in and then logout that specific-CodePudding

I want to do something like this in views.

This is not a perfect code. I am just giving an example of what is my requirement.

def home(request):
    if request.user.techxhelp is_logged_in:
            logout(techxhelp)
    else:
            pass

I tried searching Google and different sites but I found nothing. If anyone knows the solution, I shall be very thankful.

CodePudding user response：

Simply determine the Id of the specific user you are intending to logout, then you can implement something like:

from django.contrib.auth import logout

BAD_USER = 1337 # assuming the user's Id is '1337'

def home(request):
    user = request.user
    if user.id == BAD_USER and user.is_authenticated(): # might differ depending on your auth-system.
            logout(request)
    # ...
    else:
            pass

Alternate method as requested in comments:

from django.contrib.auth import logout

BAD_USER = "techxhelp" # assuming the user's username is 'techxhelp'

def home(request):
    user = request.user
    if user.is_authenticated() and user.username == BAD_USER: # might differ depending on your auth-system.
            logout(request)
    # ...
    else:
            pass
