This is exacly the same snippet as #197 http://www.djangosnippets.org/snippets/197/ but returning search enigne, search engine domain and search term in: request.search_referrer_engine request.search_referrer_domain request.search_referrer_term I wanted to show ads only to people comming from search engines so I took snippet #197 and modify it to put that info in the request object.
Here are a couple of Django decorators for limiting access to a view based on the request's `HTTP_REFERER`. Both raise a Django `PermissionDenied` exception if the referer test fails (or a referer simply isn't provided). The first, `referer_matches_hostname`, takes a hostname (and port, if specified) and matches it against the referer's. If multiple arguments are supplied a match against any of the hostnames will be considered valid. The second, `referer_matches_re`, takes a regex pattern (like Django's urlpattern) and tests if it matches the referer. This is obviously more flexible than `referer_matches_hostname` providing the ability to match not just the hostname, but any part of the referer url. Finally there's an simple example decorator, `local_referer_only`, that limits a view to the current site by using Django's `django.contrib.sites` to look up the current hostname.
