Hi, i've an authenticate problem with Django 1.5
All informations are here
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/13883539/authenticate-with-django-1-5but
i'll resume the situation :
I've a custum user model which looks like :
class User(AbstractBaseUser):
email = models.EmailField(unique=True)
activation_key = models.CharField(max_length=255)
is_active = models.BooleanField(default=False)
is_admin = models.BooleanField(default=False)
objects = UserManager()
USERNAME_FIELD = 'username'
With a form, i can register users, and all is correct.
Now, i'd like to log the registred user with :
class LoginForm(forms.Form):
email = forms.EmailField()
password = forms.CharField(
label="Password",
widget=forms.PasswordInput()
)
The corresponding view is :
def login(request):
form = LoginForm()
if request.method == 'POST':
form = LoginForm(request.POST)
email = request.POST['email']
password = request.POST['password']
user = authenticate(username=email, password=password)
if user is not None:
if user.is_active:
login(user)
else:
message = 'disabled account, check validation email'
return render(
request,
'account-login-failed.html',
{'message': message}
)
return render(request, 'account-login.html', {'form': form})
The probleme is that user = authenticate(username=email, password=password)
gives me None as return.
According to the doc, authenticate takes an usersname, not an email as arg.
But how can i use authenticate because my User model desn't support
Username.
Is there a solution with Django 1.5 ?
