Hello everyone, I'm creating a payment gateway to make transactions on my college campus go cashless. It can be used to pay library dues, stationary charges, etc. The user will add money to a central account and then he/she can use that money virtually. I chose Django because of its security. But as I need 3 groups of users viz. Faculty, Student and Staff, I'm having trouble to implement this in the best possible way. I fix one thing, the other gets disturbed. I'm new to Django, so I don't have much experience. I'm comfortable with views, basic models, etc. But this User customization, I can't get it right.
I'm attaching a representational User model (any suggestions are welcome), please have a look. All the 3 groups will have certain fields common and certain fields specific to that group only like roll_number/employee_code and permission_sets(in case the system is later used for access to labs, etc.). The fields at below of the image will be common to all groups. <https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-ApmIsfCMgnY/WRcInaw2xrI/AAAAAAAAA94/sLaL-TCzPswVdAb_zKgRtnwEj8KEa4yeACLcB/s1600/IMG_20170513_175313.jpg> I also tried this <https://drive.google.com/open?id=0Bz8W8OncbJROWHZLUXhsTmdETlU> customization which worked but then I had issues in Django admin view where the password was stored in plain hashed value. I think it has something to do with reimplementing ReadOnlyPasswordHashWidget method declared in django.contrib.auth.forms but I'm not sure! I chose Django in the first place for security reasons and I'm not able to get it right. Can someone please help me out.
