I created my own user model by sub-classing AbstractBaseUser as is recommended by the docs. The goal here was to use a new field called mob_phone as the identifying field for registration and log-in.
It works a charm - for the first user. It sets the username field as nothing - blank.But when I register a second user I get a "UNIQUE constraint failed: user_account_customuser.username".
I basically want to do away with the username field altogether. How can I achieve this?
I basically need to either find a way of making the username field not unique or remove it altogether.
models.py
from django.contrib.auth.models import AbstractUser, BaseUserManager
class MyUserManager(BaseUserManager):
def create_user(self, mob_phone, email, password=None):
"""
Creates and saves a User with the given mobile number and password.
"""
if not mob_phone:
raise ValueError('Users must mobile phone number')
user = self.model(
mob_phone=mob_phone,
email=email
)
user.set_password(password)
user.save(using=self._db)
return user
def create_superuser(self, mob_phone, email, password):
"""
Creates and saves a superuser with the given email, date of
birth and password.
"""
user = self.create_user(
mob_phone=mob_phone,
email=email,
password=password
)
user.is_admin = True
user.save(using=self._db)
return user
class CustomUser(AbstractUser):
mob_phone = models.CharField(blank=False, max_length=10, unique=True)
is_admin = models.BooleanField(default=False)
objects = MyUserManager()
# override username field as indentifier field

EMAIL_FIELD = 'email'
