class User(AbstractBaseUser):
    # ...
    email_verified = models.DateTimeField(blank=True, null=True)
    # ...
    EMAIL_FIELD = "email"
    USERNAME_FIELD = 'email'
    REQUIRED_FIELDS = ['username']
    # ...

Installation

To configure the Django Next Auth Adapter, you need to define certain settings in your Django project's settings module (settings.py).

Include django_next_auth_adapter in your INSTALLED_APPS:

# settings.py

    "django_next_auth_adapter",
]

For custom configuration, add the following settings to your settings.py file:

DJANGO_NEXT_AUTH_ADAPTER = {
    # optional: specify the permission classes applied to views within the package. Customize these classes as needed to control access to your views. Do not specify this parameter if you want to use the default permission classes.
    "PERMISSION_CLASSES": [
        # Add your permission classes here
    ],
    # optional: specify the token used for authenticating requests from the next-auth server. If not provided, authentication will be bypassed.
    "REMOTE_AUTH_TOKEN": "your-remote-auth-token",
}
