How can I use class-based views with decorators in Django?

You can use decorators with class-based views by applying them to the dispatch method or using the @method_decorator.

Can you give me an example of using a decorator with a class-based view?

Sure! Here's a simple example:

from django.utils.decorators import method_decorator
from django.views import View

@method_decorator(login_required, name='dispatch')
class MyView(View):
    def get(self, request):
        return HttpResponse('Hello, World!')

What if I want to apply multiple decorators?

You can stack decorators by applying them one after the other. For example:

@method_decorator(login_required, name='dispatch')
@method_decorator(cache_page(60 * 15), name='dispatch')
class MyView(View):
    # Your view logic here

Are there any limitations when using decorators with class-based views?

Yes, one limitation is that some decorators may not work as expected if they rely on function-based views' request/response cycle.
