Logging into CSRF protected Django site using Curl?

I want to log in to my Django app using something like curl. I know
that I could send a GET to get the login form and the CSRF token and
then submit a POST with the username, password and CSRF token. But
this seems awfully convoluted. Is this the only to login to a Django
site that uses CSRF protection?
