How do I configure middleware settings in Django?

To configure middleware in Django, you need to add your middleware classes to the MIDDLEWARE setting in your settings.py file.

Can you give me an example of a middleware class?

Sure! Here's a simple example of a middleware class that logs requests:

class SimpleMiddleware:
    def __init__(self, get_response):
        self.get_response = get_response

    def __call__(self, request):
        print('Request:', request.path)
        response = self.get_response(request)
        return response

Where do I place this middleware in my project?

You should place your middleware class in a file within one of your apps or create a new middleware directory. Then, add the path to the class in the MIDDLEWARE setting.

What are some common middleware classes I should know about?

Some common middleware classes include SecurityMiddleware, SessionMiddleware, and AuthenticationMiddleware. They handle various aspects like security, session management, and user authentication.
