Hi oliver!
With appenginepatch, when you import this:
from django.contrib.auth.models import User
you will have a User object that is very similar to the Django User model.
I use this with appenginepatch:
view-code:
from google.appengine.ext.webapp import template
import django.forms as forms
from django.contrib.auth.models import User
from django.shortcuts import render_to_response
from django.http import *
class LoginForm(forms.Form):
username = forms.CharField(label = "Username", max_length=30)
passwort = forms.CharField(label = "Password",
widget=forms.widgets.PasswordInput(), max_length=30)
def login(request):
if request.user.is_authenticated():
return HttpResponseRedirect("/")
errors = ""
form = LoginForm()
if request.method == "POST":
next = request.GET.get("next", "/")
form = LoginForm(request.POST)
if form.is_valid():
username = form.cleaned_data['username']
passwort = form.cleaned_data['passwort']
user = auth.authenticate(username = username, password = passwort)
if user is not None and user.is_active:
auth.login(request, user)
return HttpResponseRedirect(next)
else:
errors = "Can't log you in. Wrong password?"
return render_to_response("login/user.html",
RequestContext(request, {'form': form, 'errors': errors}))
I hope I didn't forget any imports, I have split the code over several files.
In the template, you can just do
<form action='.' method='post'>
{{form.as_p}}
</form>
or
<form action='.' method='post'>
{% if form.username.errors %}
<p class="error"> {{ form.username.errors }} </p>
{% endif %}
<table align="center">
<tr>
<td>
{{form.username.label}}
</td>
<td>
{{form.username}}
...
Hope this helps you!
Best Regards,
Jesaja Everling
