Re: im a newbe, i'm trying to get the username in a view

You would want to include that line in a method, not as a class attribute. For example:

def get(self, request):

        user = request.user.username

        ...

        return render(...

How would that help? The attribute value should be set to the currently
logged in user. Just adding the attribute to request object will not do
that. Clearly something else is missing.

Kind regards,
