pip install django-session-timeout

Usage

Update your settings to add the SessionTimeoutMiddleware:

MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES = [
    # ...
    'django.contrib.sessions.middleware.SessionMiddleware',
    'django_session_timeout.middleware.SessionTimeoutMiddleware',
    # ...
]

And also add the SESSION_EXPIRE_SECONDS:

SESSION_EXPIRE_SECONDS = 3600  # 1 hour

By default, the session will expire X seconds after the start of the session. To expire the session X seconds after the last activity, use the following setting:
