How can I implement built in signals, for my app?

How to implement built in signals, for my app?

I have a project myappointments, with two apps appointments and clinic in it.

Objective:
When a user logins, details should be entered in the database.

appointments/models.py:

class Event(models.Model):
id=models.AutoField(primary_key=True, unique=True)
type=models.CharField(max_length=60)
description = models.CharField(max_length=150)
time = models.DateTimeField(default=timezone.now)

appointments/__init__.py:

default_app_config = 'appointments.apps.AppointmentsConfig'

appointments/apps.py:

from django.apps import AppConfig
class AppointmentsConfig(AppConfig):
name = 'appointments'
def ready(self):
import appointments.signals # noqa

appointments/signals.py:

from django.contrib.auth.signals import user_logged_in
from django.dispatch import receiver
def record_loggedin(sender, user, request, **kwargs):
ev = Event(type="Login", description = 'User logged in:
{}'.format(request.user.id))
ev.save()
print("User has logged in. Saved event to DB.")
user_logged_in.connect(record_loggedin)

What other modifications do I need to do this?
