A few weeks ago I browsed through Django core code to get a basic understanding how to create a user registration or any other form using generic manipulators and how to fill in some values (such as last_login) behind the scene.
I was following the guidelines about manipulators at: http://www.djangoproject.com/documentation/forms/ To create a user you should do something like that: def add_profile(request): from datetime import datetime user_manipulator = User.AddManipulator() if request.POST: new_user_data = request.POST.copy() # fields that have to be left unmodified #new_user_data['username'] = user.username new_user_data['password'] = new_password_data['new_password'] now = datetime.now() new_user_data['date_joined_date'] = now.strftime("%Y-%m-%d") new_user_data['date_joined_time'] = now.strftime("%H:%M:%S") new_user_data['last_login_date'] = "1900-01-01" new_user_data['last_login_time'] = "00:00:00" new_user_data['is_active'] = 'on' new_user_data['is_superuser'] = 'off' new_user_data['is_staff'] = 'off' user_errors = user_manipulator.get_validation_errors(new_user_data) if not user_errors: user_manipulator.do_html2python(new_user_data) user = user_manipulator.save(new_user_data) #user = User.objects.create_user( # new_user_data['username'], # new_user_data['email'], # new_user_data['password'] #) user.set_password(new_user_data['password']) user.save() ... I hope this will help you. And if somebody has a better solution how to manage filling fields with values automagically, please share that wwith everybody. Good luck!
