A Django middleware to restrict the access to the Django admin based on incoming IPs

• Python >= 3.5
• Django >= 1.11,<3
• django-ipware=>2,<3

First install the package:

$ pip install django-admin-ip-restrictor

Then add the middleware to your settings:

MIDDLEWARE = [
    ...
    'admin_ip_restrictor.middleware.AdminIPRestrictorMiddleware'
]

Set these variables in your settings.py to control who has access to the admin (IPV4 and IPV6 can be mixed):

RESTRICT_ADMIN=True
ALLOWED_ADMIN_IPS=['127.0.0.1', '::1']
ALLOWED_ADMIN_IP_RANGES=['127.0.0.0/24', '::/1']
RESTRICTED_APP_NAMES=['admin']
TRUST_PRIVATE_IP=True

Use RESTRICTED_APP_NAMES to restrict the access to more apps. Admin app is always included.

If using environment variables make sure that the variables receive the right type of value. django-admin-ip-restrictor automatically converts the following formats:

$ export RESTRICT_ADMIN='true'
$ export ALLOWED_ADMIN_IPS='127.0.0.1,::1'
$ export ALLOWED_ADMIN_IP_RANGES='127.0.0.0/24,::/1'
$ export RESTRICTED_APP_NAMES='wagtail_admin,foo'

For RESTRICT_ADMIN also these values can be used: True, 1, false, False, 0

Use TRUST_PRIVATE_IP to skip checking IP addresses from a trusted private network.
