html - get csrf token from page using javascript - Stack Overflow

文章数量:1398782

I am trying to extract the csrf token from a Django powered webpage using javascript.

My html template looks like this:

<div class = "debugging">
  <p id = "csrf">{% csrf_token %}</p>
</div>

When I use this script below, I can see the token value in the console, but can't actually extract it:

<script>
var csrfToken = document.getElementById("csrf");
console.log(csrfToken.innerHTML);
</script>

It returns in console:

<input type="hidden" name="csrfmiddlewaretoken" 
value="AAIawsx1XysoQpDyIqyzdPe3npopNCHRzFBQdvUdlr4TUPEq3Sr5C5bFqc">

So I tried:

var csrfToken = document.getElementById("csrf").attributes[0].value;
var csrfToken = document.getElementById("csrf").value;

both returned "undefined"

Any help is appreciated!

Your django seems to create an input element holding your token, so just select that using querySelector and read its value:

var csrfToken = document.querySelector("#csrf input").value;

Since your django code also generates a name="csrfmiddlewaretoken" on that input element, you can also do this:

var csrfToken = document.getElementsByName('csrfmiddlewaretoken')[0].value;

I tried this in new Laravel. it is Vanilla JS and can be called anywhere. In JS or blade file.

var csrf = document.querySelector('meta[name="csrf-token"]').content;

You could have used {{ csrf_token }} instead of {% csrf_token %} if you intend to get only the token value
