Django app to manage a private beta phase for a website.

  • This app provides users with the change to sign up for a private beta - by providing their email address.

  • The administrators of the website can manually invite people to join the beta from the Django admin panel.

  • The signup view of the app is only accessible by providing the correct invitation code in the url.

Installation

  • Install django-hunger using pip or easy_install.

  • Add hunger to INSTALLED_APPS in settings.py.

  • Add hunger.middleware.BetaMiddleware to MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES.

  • Create templates beta/request_invite.html, beta/confirmation.html, and beta/used.html. The request_invite.html template receives a Context instance with a Django form for the email signup form. The confirmation.html and used.html templates are flatpages for confirming signup and used invites.

Integration with django_templated_email

If django_templated_email - https://github.com/bradwhittington/django-templated-email is installed, you can use customized *.email templates with an example setting such as:

BETA_EMAIL_TEMPLATES_DIR = 'beta'

And create the following templates:

<project_dir>/templates/beta/beta_confirm.email
<project_dir>/templates/beta/beta_invite.email

Integration with django_social_auth

Modify SOCIAL_AUTH_PIPELINE in settings to replace social_auth.backends.pipeline.user.create_user with create_beta_user (using default pipeline):

SOCIAL_AUTH_PIPELINE = (
    'social_auth.backends.pipeline.social.social_auth_user',
    'social_auth.backends.pipeline.associate.associate_by_email',
    'social_auth.backends.pipeline.user.get_username',
    'hunger.contrib.social_auth_pipeline.create_beta_user',
    'social_auth.backends.pipeline.social.associate_user',
    'social_auth.backends.pipeline.social.load_extra_data',
    'social_auth.backends.pipeline.user.update_user_details'
)

BETA_ALWAYS_ALLOW_VIEWS must at bare minimum include the relevant social_auth views:

BETA_ALWAYS_ALLOW_VIEWS = (
    'social_auth.views.auth',
    'social_auth.views.complete',
)
