Django Forbid aims to make website access managed and secure for the maintainers. It provides a middleware to grant or
deny user access based on device and/or location. It also supports VPN detection for banning users who want to lie about
their country and geolocation. Also, users can use only the VPN detection feature or disable it.

## Installation

```shell
python -m pip install django-forbid
```

## Configuration

Add the `django_forbid.apps.ForbidConfig` to your `INSTALLED_APPS` in your Django project's **settings.py** file.

```python
INSTALLED_APPS = [
    ...,  # other apps
    'django_forbid.apps.ForbidConfig',
]
```

Also, add the `django_forbid.middleware.ForbidMiddleware` to the `MIDDLEWARE` list of the project.

```python
MIDDLEWARE = [
    ...,  # other middlewares
    'django_forbid.middleware.ForbidMiddleware',
]
```

Configuring the `GEOIP_PATH` variable in your project's settings is important. This variable should contain the path to
the GeoLite2 database file. You should [download](https://dev.maxmind.com/geoip/geoip2/geolite2/) the database and
follow the Django [documentation](https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/2.1/ref/contrib/gis/geoip2/#settings) for proper
configuration.

## Usage

After connecting the Django Forbid to your project, you can define the set of desired zones to be forbidden or allowed.
All you need is to set the `DJANGO_FORBID` variable in your project's settings. It should be a dictionary with the
following keys:

- `DEVICES` - list of devices to permit or forbid access to
- `COUNTRIES` - list of countries to permit or forbid access to
- `TERRITORIES` - list of territories to permit or forbid access to
- `OPTIONS` - a dictionary for additional settings
    - `VPN` - use VPN detection and forbid access to VPN users
    - `URL` - set of URLs to redirect to when the user is located in a forbidden country or using a VPN
        - `FORBIDDEN_LOC` - the URL to redirect to when the user is located in a forbidden geolocation
        - `FORBIDDEN_NET` - the URL to redirect to when the user is using a forbidden network (VPN)
        - `FORBIDDEN_DEV` - the URL to redirect to when the user is using a forbidden device

The available device types are: `smartphone`, `peripheral` - refers to all hardware components that are attached to a
computer, `wearable` - common types of wearable technology include smartwatches and smartglasses, `phablet` - a
smartphone having a larger screen, `console` - PlayStation, Xbox, etc., `display`, `speaker` - Google Assistant, Siri,
Alexa, etc., `desktop`, `tablet`, `camera`, `player` - iPod, Sony Walkman, Creative Zen, etc., `phone`, `car` - refers
to a car browser and `tv` - refers to TVs having internet access.

```python
DJANGO_FORBID = {
    'DEVICES': ['desktop', 'smartphone', 'console', 'tablet', 'tv'],
    'COUNTRIES': ['US', 'GB'],
    'TERRITORIES': ['EU'],
    'OPTIONS': {
        'VPN': True,
        'URL': {
            'FORBIDDEN_LOC': 'forbidden_location',
            'FORBIDDEN_NET': 'forbidden_network',
            'FORBIDDEN_DEV': 'forbidden_device',
        },
    },
}
```

The available country codes in the required ISO 3166 alpha-2 format are
listed [here](https://www.iban.com/country-codes). And the available continent codes (territories) are: `AF` -
Africa, `AN` - Antarctica, `AS` - Asia, `EU` - Europe, `NA` - North America, `OC` - Oceania and `SA` - South America.

_None of the settings are required. If you don't specify any settings, the middleware will not do anything._
