python - Django-axes not working with custom login view -

i have followed below links before asking question seems duplicate, of no use. i'm asking again.

django login django-axes

django-axes not capturing failed login attempt, captures admin failed attempts fine

the django-axes works fine admin site, unable capture failed attempts user custom login view. custom view @ '/project/app/views.py' follows:

from axes.decorators import watch_login @watch_login def user_login(request):      if request.method == 'post':          username = request.post.get('username')          password = request.post.get('password')          ...... 

and in settings.py, middleware class i'm using

'axes.middleware.failedloginmiddleware'

and other django-axes configuration follows:

axes_login_failure_limit = 3 axes_cooloff_time = 30 axes_lockout_template = '/templates/app/login.html'

and urls.py follows:

from axes.decorators import watch_login  urlpatterns = patterns('', url(r'^login/$', watch_login(user_login), {'template_name': 'app/login.html'}), 

when try access admin page or user page, i'm getting following error:

nameerror @ /admin/

name 'user_login' not defined

i tried changing middleware class 'axes.middleware.failedloginmiddleware' 'axes.middleware.failedadminloginmiddleware' suggested in link, nothing seems work showing error

a server error occurred. please contact administrator.

i think made question clear.

any appreciated. thanks

a year late, hope question , answer useful else. tried out custom login view, , have pretty same setup you, django 1.9.6 , django-axes 1.6. did not wrap user_login url in watch_login() because if view's getting called, logically it's getting logged @watch_login decorator.

it worked fine - logged in several different users , axes created access logs view in admin interface.

your nameerror @ /admin/ seems indicate error not django-axes urls.py - login line (because view getting called when access admin or user login pages, right?). did import app's views, i.e. from app import views? , need ensure user_login view's namespace explicit:

url(r'^login/$', watch_login(views.user_login), {'template_name': 'app/login.html'}),...
