Django Visitor Information Middleware
This module contains a collection of middleware classes which make writing timezone and location aware applications easier.
Information provided by this middleware can be used to do things like:
Display a cookie consent message if visitor is coming from the country within the EU
Display timezone change notification if a user’s location timezone doesn’t match a timezone which is currently set in the profile
…
Installation
pip install django-visitor-information-middlewareGeolocation Database
To determine location information based on the user IP address, this module uses GEO IP database.
By default, it ships with a free GeoLite2 database (http://dev.maxmind.com/geoip/geoip2/geolite2/).
If you want to use a custom database file, simply set VISITOR_INFO_GEOIP_DATABASE_PATH setting to point to your geoip database file. Keep in mind that this file needs to be readable by a process under which your Django application is running.
Included Middleware
