Get the current request from a RequestContext?

Question

Does a Django RequestContext have a way to get the HttpRequest object with which it is associated with? Does it have a method like get_request() or the like to get the request which is passed into the constructor? I need to reference it from a method in which I only receive the RequestContext.

Answer 1

Add 'django.core.context_processors.request' to TEMPLATE_CONTEXT_PROCESSORS settings. And get request where context is available using :

request = context['request']
