We all hate bots, lets admit it. Especially the ones that try to gain access to our most secret endpoints. Well we have an easy solution for your django application. django_spam simply adds common admin urls to url conf so when bots (or human for that matter) try and access them, they will get redirected...

To install:

pip install django-spam

Add to apps list:

INSTALLED_APPS = [
    '...',
    'django_spam',
    '...'
]

django_spam ships with some default endpoints bots might try to hit. If you would like to add extra routes, simply add a SPAM_ROUTES variable to your settings file that contains a list of extra endpoints you would like to add. no leading slashes

SPAM_ROUTES = [
    'admin.php',
    'admin/login.php',
    'administrator/index.php',
    'index.php',
    '...',
]

The same goes for SPAM_URLS you would like traffic to get forwarded to. Add some fun urls:

SPAM_URLS = [
    # 10 hours of Donald Trump saying bing bing bong
    'https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UKbOqEk6rsk',
    # 10 hours of Darth Vader breathing
    'https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=un8FAjXWOBY',
    '...',
]

Include django_spam.urls to root url file:

'...'
url(r'', include('django_spam.urls')),  # for Django >= 2.0: path('', include('django_spam.urls')),
'...',

If for some odd reason you need to exclude routes, define EXCLUDED_ROUTES in settings. no leading slashes

EXCLUDED_ROUTES = [
    'admin.php',
    'index.php'
]
