Error in function to return permissions

I have a custom function to check if a user is authorized to do
certain functions:

@login_required
def checkpermission(request, permiss):
username = request.user.username
print(f"username is {username}")
print(f"User.objects.filter() is {User.objects.filter()}")
userobj = User.objects.get(username=username)
print(dir(userobj))
print(userobj.user_permissions.all())
print(Permission.objects.filter(group__user=userobj))
perms = getpermissions(userobj)
for perm in perms:
p = perm.name.lower().replace(" ", "_")
if permiss == p:
print("Has permission: %s" % p)
return True
print("No")
return False

def getpermissions(userobj):
if userobj.is_superuser:
return Permission.objects.all()
return userobj.user_permissions.all() |
Permission.objects.filter(group__user=userobj)

The problem arises if I write the previous function with decorator:

@login_required
def getpermissions(userobj):
if userobj.is_superuser:
return Permission.objects.all()
return userobj.user_permissions.all() |
Permission.objects.filter(group__user=userobj)

In this case, I get the error:

line 20, in _wrapped_view
if test_func(request.user):
AttributeError: 'User' object has no attribute 'user'

Why would this be happening?

Sincerely yours,
