Hi,
I actually have already sent this to Shawn, but thought it might be useful
if I post to it a broader audience. Here is my solution to this problem:
<code>
user = None
outer_frames = inspect.getouterframes(inspect.currentframe())
for tpl in outer_frames:
arginfo = inspect.getargvalues(tpl[0])
if(type(arginfo[3]) is dict):
arg_dict = arginfo[3].copy()
for k in arg_dict:
if(type(arg_dict.get(k)) is WSGIRequest):
user = arg_dict.get(k).user
break
del arg_dict
del arginfo
if(user):
break
</code>
This code is quite generic and should work in any place you ended up
provided the origin was the django view/class method. I'm using it on
models and customized admin forms for storing audit trails. It uses inspect
to scan the parameters from the callers of the current frame stack. You can
modify it to fish out pretty much anything.. there is no need to change the
interfaces.
Hope it helps.
Cheers,
Waldek
