Need help in migrating a Python2 custom middleware to current Python3 version
```
class ExtendUserSession(MiddlewareMixin):
"""
Extend authenticated user's sessions so they don't have to log back in
following 15 minutes (set by Django's default `SESSION_COOKIE_AGE` setting).
"""
def process_request(self, request, get_response):
current_user = request.user
# Only extend the session for auth'd users
if request.user.is_authenticated:
reason = CsrfViewMiddleware('get_response').process_view(request, None, (), {})
if reason:
# process_view returns HTTPException
pass
else:
# process_view returns None - No error on HTTP request from CSRF middleware verification
request.session.set_expiry(86400)
```
In this method, the admin can log in inside the website but after any post request, the session gets expires and returns to the login page
