Re: Custom User Model

Hi Amitesh,

unfortunately, nothing changed... I mean it is just weird that I am having now those different tables in auth and users app (see picture).

I can add and manage groups for auth_group but I would love to manage those via users_account_groups.... any ideas?

Also currently my groups are stored in auth_group while the permission and user allocation is stored in users_account_groups as well as users_account_user_permissions...

Is this normal?

Best wishes,

Manuel

Hello Manuel, 

Try the below. Recently I have worked on custom user model:

class AccountManager(BaseUserManager):
    def create_superuser(self, email, password, **extra_fields):
        extra_fields.setdefault('is_staff', True)
        extra_fields.setdefault('is_superuser', True)
        extra_fields.setdefault('is_active', True)

        if extra_fields.get('is_staff') is not True:
            raise ValueError(_('Superuser must have is_staff=True.'))
        if extra_fields.get('is_superuser') is not True:
            raise ValueError(_('Superuser must have is_superuser=True.'))
        return self.create_user(email, password, **extra_fields)

    def create_user(self, email, password, **extra_fields):
        extra_fields.setdefault('is_staff', False)
        extra_fields.setdefault('is_superuser', False)
        if not email:
            raise ValueError(_('Enter the email before proceeding'))

        email = self.normalize_email(email)
        user = self.model(email=email, password=password, **extra_fields)
        user.set_password(password)
        user.save()
        return user

see if these changes make any difference.

Regards,

Amitesh

Hi, 

I have a custom user model (see below) with inheritance from AbstractBaseUser and PermissionMixin. Therefore I have not only the auth_group, auth_group_permissions and auth_permissions tables but also those for my custom user model called 'Account'.

Currently I have the following problem: I cannot add groups to the custom user model group but I can add to auth_group. Also in django admin looking at the custom user table I can see the auth_group... which is weird... I think I have done an error or missed something while setting it up... thank you very much for your help.
