Re: Error in function to return permissions

@login_required needs "request" as the first parameter.

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

@login_required
def checkpermission(request, permiss):

    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:

Why would this be happening?
