Create your own authentication backend that uses emails instead of
usernames. Something like:
from django.contrib.auth.models import User
class BasicBackend:
def get_user(self, user_id):
try:
return User.objects.get(pk=user_id)
except User.DoesNotExist:
return None
class EmailBackend(BasicBackend):
def authenticate(self, username=None, password=None):
try:
user = User.objects.get(email=username)
if user.check_password(password):
return user
except User.DoesNotExist:
return None
and add to settings.py
AUTHENTICATION_BACKENDS = (
'publicads.auth.EmailBackend',
)
Also I autogenerate usernames based on id, something like 'user_5454'.
Works for me
