# Usage
    To use the IPRestrictionMiddleware in your Django project, follow these steps:

## 1. Add Middleware to Django Settings
        Add IPRestrictionMiddleware to the MIDDLEWARE list in your Django settings (settings.py):

```sh
# settings.py

MIDDLEWARE = [
    # Other middleware...
    'ip_restriction_middleware.middleware.IPRestrictionMiddleware',
    # Other middleware...
]

## 2. Configure IP and Path Restrictions
        Add the following settings to configure the allowed IP addresses and restricted paths:

```sh
# settings.py

# List of IP addresses allowed to access non-admin paths
ALLOWED_IPS = ['127.0.0.1', '192.168.1.1']

# List of IP addresses allowed to access admin paths
ALLOWED_ADMIN_IPS = ['127.0.0.1', '192.168.1.1']

# Dictionary of restricted paths with IP restrictions
RESTRICTED_PATH = {
    "127.0.0.1": ["/test/servicev1/", "/test/servicev2/", "/test/servicev3/"],
    "2.0.34.22": ["/test/servicev2/"],
    "2.0.30.1,127.0.0.2": ["/test/servicev3/"]
}

# Middleware Details
## IPRestrictionMiddleware
    The IPRestrictionMiddleware class is responsible for checking the client's IP address against the allowed lists and the restricted paths. If the IP address is not allowed to access the requested path, the middleware returns a 403 Forbidden response.

#Initialization
    The middleware is initialized with the following attributes:

    allowed_ips: Set of allowed IP addresses for non-admin paths.
    allowed_admin_ips: Set of allowed IP addresses for admin paths.
    restricted_paths_and_IP: Dictionary of restricted paths and their allowed IP addresses.
    Request Processing
    The middleware processes each request to check the client's IP address and the requested path. If the IP address is not allowed, it returns a 403 Forbidden response.
