django-authtools-py3 1.7.6

Custom user model app for Django featuring email as username and class-based views for authentication.

django-authtools

A custom user model app for Django 1.11+ that features email as username and other things. It tries to stay true to the built-in user model for the most part.

The main differences between authtools’s User and django.contrib.auth’s are email as username and class-based auth views.

Read the django-authtools documentation.

Quickstart

Before you use this, you should probably read the documentation about custom User models.

1. Install the package:

   $ pip install django-authtools

2. Add authtools to your INSTALLED_APPS.

3. Add the following to your settings.py:

   AUTH_USER_MODEL = 'authtools.User'

4. Add authtools.urls to your URL patterns:

   urlpatterns = patterns('',
       # ...
       url(r'^accounts/', include('authtools.urls')),
       # ...
   )

5. Enjoy.

0.2.0

• Django 1.6 support.

  Django 1.6 broke backwards compatibility of the password_reset_confirm view. Be sure to update any references to this URL. Rather than using a separate view for each encoding, authtools uses a single view that works with both.

• Use prefetch_related in the UserChangeForm to avoid doing hundreds of ContentType queries. The form from Django has the same feature, it wasn’t copied over correctly in our original form.

• some bugfixes:

• Call UserManager.normalize_email on an instance, not a class.

• authtools.models.User should inherit its parent’s Meta.
