While making a customer decorator in django, the code is here :-

def owner_required(function):
    def wrap(request, *args, **kwargs):
        print(request)
        ip_address = get_client_ip(request)
        ip_exist = Node.objects.get(ip_address=ip_address)
        if ip_exist:
            return function(request, *args, **kwargs)
        else:
            raise PermissionDenied
    return wrap

my code for get_ip_address() is :-

def get_client_ip(request):
    """ Extract ip address from a Django request object
    """
    x_forwarded_for = request.META.get('HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR')
    if x_forwarded_for:
        ip = x_forwarded_for.split(',')[0]
    else:
        ip = request.META.get('REMOTE_ADDR')
    return ip

The error i am getting is :-

x_forwarded_for = request.META.get('HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR')
AttributeError: 'function' object has no attribute 'META'

That get_client_ip() is working fine when used in normal function, but don't know why it is not working when i am using it a decorator.

What might be the problem ?

Thanks in advance for replies.

Please show where you're using that decorator.
