Please guys I'm getting the error message NOT NULL constraint failed: blango_auth_user.username when trying to register a new user on the blog.
class BlangoUserManager(BaseUserManager):
def _create_user(self, email, password, **extra_fields):
if not email:
raise ValueError("Email must be set")
email = self.normalize_email(email)
user = self.model(email=email, **extra_fields)
user.set_password(password)
user.save(using=self._db)
return user
def create_user(self, email, password=None, **extra_fields):
extra_fields.setdefault("is_staff", False)
extra_fields.setdefault("is_superuser", False)
return self._create_user(email, password, **extra_fields)
def create_superuser(self, email, password, **extra_fields):
extra_fields.setdefault("is_staff", True)
extra_fields.setdefault("is_superuser", 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)
class User(AbstractUser):
username = None
email = models.EmailField(
_("email address"),
unique=True,
)
objects = BlangoUserManager()
USERNAME_FIELD = "email"
REQUIRED_FIELDS = []
def __str__(self):
return self.email
The above is my custom user model in which I'm overriding the username field to set it to none since I want to use the email field as a unique identifier.
MEANWHILE,
If I remove the username=None argument, I'll get the error message UNIQUE constraint failed: blango_auth_user.username as the image below shows
Unique constraint failed error
This is my registration form.py file for more detail...
from crispy_forms.helper import FormHelper
from crispy_forms.layout import Submit
from django_registration.forms import RegistrationForm
from blango_auth.models import User
class BlangoRegistrationForm(RegistrationForm):
class Meta(RegistrationForm.Meta):
model = User
def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
super(BlangoRegistrationForm, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs)
self.helper = FormHelper()
self.helper.add_input(Submit("submit", "Register"))
Thank you so much. I await your expert answers.
I tried to change the username=None attribute in the models.py file but still not working. All other answers on stack overflow does not solve my issue.
