Hi!
I am working on a project with multiple sites and are using the
contrib.site app to separate them from eachother. The number of sites
will be high and changing often, so I don't want to modify the Apache
config and create a new VirtualHost/Location for each new site. I have
solved this by writing a middleware that parses the url and changes
the settings.SITE_ID based on that. Similar to
http://www.djangosnippets.org/snippets/1099/
I'm planing to use contrib.auth for user login on each site, but I
want to make the username unique together with the site. I tried
something like this:
class SiteUser(User):
site = ForeignKey(Site)
class Meta:
unique_together = (('site', 'username'),)
But this will not work so well, since the username field has to be in
the same model as the unique_together meta attribute, and the username
field is still unique across the sites. So I tried to make the User
model abstract and removing the unique flag:
User._meta.abstract = True
User._meta.get_field('username')._unique = False
But now the ManyToMany fields in User will complain that it's a
abstract class, wich makes sence. And I guess you shouldn't modify en
existing model anyway. Is it possible to do what I am trying to do
without writing a new auth app? Are there any other problems with the
multi site approach?
