What’s that

django-sitegate is a reusable application for Django to ease sign up & sign in processes.

This application will handle most common user registration flows for you.

Quick example

Add the sitegate application to INSTALLED_APPS in your settings file (usually ‘settings.py’).

Here follows the most straightforward way possible with django-sitegate to have both sign up & sign in functionality on your page.

1. Use signup_view and signin_view decorators to mark your view as the one handling signups and sign ins respectively:

   from django.shortcuts import render
   
   from sitegate.decorators import signup_view, signin_view, redirect_signedin
   
   @signup_view
   @signin_view
   @redirect_signedin  # We also prevent logged in users from accessing our sign in/sign up page.
   def entrance(request):
       return render(request, 'entrance.html', {'title': 'Sign in & Sign up'})

2. Then in your template load sitegate tag library and put sitegate_signup_form & sitegate_signin_form tags in place where you want a registration and sign in forms to be.

{% extends "_base.html" %}
{% load sitegate %}

{% block page_contents %}
    <div class="my_signin_block">
        {% sitegate_signin_form %}
    </div>
    <div class="my_signup_block">
        {% sitegate_signup_form %}
    </div>
{% endblock %}

You’re done. Now your site visitors have an e-mail + password form to register and username/e-mail + password form to log in.

And mind that we’ve barely made a scratch of sitegate.
