[1.1.0] - UNDER DEVELOPMENT

Summary

Adds opt-in IP/hostname access control for individual views via mixins and a decorator, with first-class support for Django REST framework, while remaining backwards compatible.

Added

  • IPAccessMixin in django_ip_access.mixins for protecting specific class-based views:
  • Works with standard Django CBVs, DRF generic views, and DRF viewsets.
  • Supports optional ip_access_route_config on the view to customize route matching (e.g. startswith, regex).
  • ip_access_required decorator in django_ip_access.decorators for:
  • Django function-based views.
  • DRF APIView methods (e.g. get, post).
  • New documentation examples demonstrating:
  • Usage with Django CBVs.
  • Usage with DRF generics, APIViews, and viewsets.
  • Test coverage for:
  • IPAccessMixin with allowed/denied IPs.
  • ip_access_required on Django FBVs and DRF APIViews.

Changed

  • django_ip_access.__init__ now re-exports:
  • IPAccessMixin from django_ip_access.mixins.
  • ip_access_required from django_ip_access.decorators.
  • Internal organization: decorators moved into a dedicated decorators.py module (no behavioral change).

Fixed

  • None.

Notes

  • This is a backwards-compatible minor release.
  • Existing imports like from django_ip_access import ip_access_required continue to work.
  • Recommended usage for new code:
  • from django_ip_access.mixins import IPAccessMixin
  • from django_ip_access.decorators import ip_access_required

Initial public release of django-ip-access-middleware with:

  • Middleware-based IP and hostname access control.
