To access the request object or any other variable in a form’s clean() method with Python Django, we can use self.request in the clean method to access the request object.
For instance, we write
class MyForm(forms.Form):
def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
self.request = kwargs.pop('request', None)
super(MyForm, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs)
def clean(self):
self.request
# ...
to create the MyForm form with the clean method.
And then we can use self.request to access the request object in the clean method.
