You can use threading.local() variables, like this:
import threading
_thread_locals = threading.local()
def get_current_user():
return getattr(_thread_locals, 'user', None)
class ThreadLocals(object):
"""Middleware that gets various objects from the
request object and saves them in thread local storage."""
def process_request(self, request):
_thread_locals.user = getattr(request, 'user', None)
In this example, I get "user" variable from "request" object and add
it to the "_thread_locals" object.
After that I can use get_current_user() function for getting saved
variable any time.
