Django - Redirect Unauthenticated User trying to access UpdateView to DetailView

This is my last brain cell speaking.
I have a model called Post with title, body, author, logo and pub_date fields.
There is a page in my app that the user can Update/Edit the post. I want the user to be redirected to the Post's Detail page if they tried to access it without being logged in.
The problem is that I can't reference the Post's pk to redirect the user to the related page, If I want to put it simply:
the user trying to access .../2/edit/ will be redirected to .../2/ if they aren't logged in

I Tried using LoginRequiredMixin to block the user but I can't redirect the user to the relative details page.

urls.py:

urlpatterns = [
    path('', PostListView.as_view(), name='index'),
    path('<int:pk>/', PostDetailView.as_view(), name='details'),
    path('new/', PostCreateView.as_view(), name='new_post'),
    path('<int:pk>/edit', PostUpdateView.as_view(), name='update_post'),
]

views.py:

class PostUpdateView(LoginRequiredMixin, UpdateView):
    model = Post
    login_url = reverse_lazy('details', args=[self.object.pk,]) 
    form_class = PostUpdateForm
    template_name = "posts/update_post.html"

I also tried:

class PostUpdateView(LoginRequiredMixin, UpdateView):
    def get_login_url(self) -> str:
        super().get_login_url()
        UpdateView.get(self, self.request)
        self.login_url = reverse_lazy('details', args=[self.object.pk,])
    model = Post
    form_class = PostUpdateForm
    template_name = "posts/update_post.html"

But it returns an empty/none value

Is LoginRequiredMixin even the right way to do this?
I know this can easily be achieved without GenericViews/UpdateView just by getting the request and handling it ourselves, But isn't GenericViews supposted to get the job done easier?

Confusion between commands.Bot and discord.Client | Which one should I use?

Whenever you look at YouTube tutorials or code from this website there is a real variation. Some developers use client = discord.Client(intents=intents) while the others use bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix="something", intents=intents) . Now I know slightly about the difference but I get errors from different places from my code when I use either of them and its confusing. Especially since there has a few changes over the years in discord.py it is hard to find the real difference. I tried sticking to discord.Client then I found that there are more features in commands.Bot . Then I found errors when using commands.Bot . An example of this is: When I try to use commands.Bot client = commands.Bot(command_prefix=">",intents=intents) async def load(): for filename in os.listdir("./Cogs"): if filename.endswith(".py"): client.load_extension(f"Cogs.{filename[:-3]}") The above doesnt giveany response from my Cogs ...

Where and how is this Laravel kernel constructor called? [closed]

Where and how is this Laravel kernel constructor called? public fucntion __construct(Application $app, $Router $roouter) { } I have read the documentation and some online tutorial but I can find any clear explanation. I am learning Laravel and I am wondering where does this kernel constructor receives its arguments from. "POSTMOTERM" CLARIFICATION: Here is more clarity.I have checked the boostrap/app.php and it is only used for boostrapping the interfaces into the container class. What is not clear to me is where and how the Kernel class is instatiated and the arguments passed to the object calling the constructor.Something similar to; obj = new kernel(arg1,arg2) or, is the framework using some magic functions somewhere? Special gratitude to those who burn their eyeballs and brain cells on this trivia before it goes into a full blown menopause alias "MARKED AS DUPLICATE".
