One final cleanup of migrations to make sure we’ve got everything there:
$ rm accounts/migrations/0001_initial.py
$ python3 manage.py makemigrations
Migrations for 'accounts':
0001_initial.py:
- Create model User
No warnings now!
Users Are Authenticated
Our usermodel needs one last property before it’s complete: standardDjango users have
an API which includes most of which we won’t need, but there is one
that will come in useful: .is_authenticated() :
accounts/tests/test_models.py (ch16l045).
def test_is_authenticated(self):
user = User()
self.assertTrue(user.is_authenticated ())
Which gives:
AttributeError: 'User' object has no attribute 'is_authenticated'
And so, the ultra-simple:
accounts/models.py.
class User(models .Model):
email = models.EmailField(primary_key=True)
last_login = models.DateTimeField(default=timezone.now)
REQUIRED_FIELDS = ()
USERNAME_FIELD = 'email'
def is_authenticated (self):
return True
And that works:
$ python3 manage.py test accounts
[...]
