Custom User Validation

To add custom validation to the login process, follow these steps:

1. Define the Custom Validation Function:

   Create a custom validation function in a module. This function should accept a user object and perform the necessary validation.

   # authentication/custom_validations.py
   from django.core.exceptions import PermissionDenied
   from django.utils.translation import gettext as _
   
   def custom_user_validation(user):
       if not user.is_active:
           raise PermissionDenied(_("User is not active."), 'inactive_user')
   

2. Update the Settings:

   In your settings.py file, add the MORE_USER_VALIDATION setting and set it to the path of your custom validation function.

   # cha_auth/settings.py
   MORE_USER_VALIDATION = 'authentication.custom_validations.custom_user_validation'
   

By following these steps, you can add custom validation to the login process without modifying the URL configuration. Users can specify their custom validation function in the MORE_USER_VALIDATION setting, and it will be called during the login process.
