You just need to add the middleware class to the list of middleware in your settings.py and follow the instructions for your views as directed in the snippet. Here's the documentation guide to middleware.

Hope that helps you out.

Here's an example middleware that redirects to the SSL site if HTTP is used:

from django.http import HttpRequest
from django.shortcuts import redirect

  #Require SSL com only. If we get anything else, redirect to https /
class RequireSSL(object):
  def process_request(self, request):
    assert isinstance( request, HttpRequest )
    if not request.is_secure():
      return redirect( 'https://%s/' % request.get_host() )

Then inside your settings.py:

MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES = [
    'website.middleware.require_ssl.RequireSSL',
    ...
]
