FAQ
===
1. Why account_confirm_email url is defined but it is not usable?
In /dj_rest_auth/registration/urls.py we can find something like this:
.. code-block:: python
url(r'^account-confirm-email/(?P<key>[-:\w]+)/$', TemplateView.as_view(),
name='account_confirm_email'),
This url is used by django-allauth. Empty TemplateView is defined just to allow reverse() call inside app - when email with verification link is being sent.
You should override this view/url to handle it in your API client somehow and then, send post to /verify-email/ endpoint with proper key.
If you don't want to use API on that step, then just use ConfirmEmailView view from:
django-allauth https://github.com/pennersr/django-allauth/blob/master/allauth/account/views.py
2. I get an error: Reverse for 'password_reset_confirm' not found.
You need to add `password_reset_confirm` url into your ``urls.py`` (at the top of any other included urls). Please check the ``urls.py`` module inside demo app example for more details.
3. How can I update UserProfile assigned to User model?
Assuming you already have UserProfile model defined like this
.. code-block:: python
from django.db import models
from django.contrib.auth.models import User
class UserProfile(models.Model):
user = models.OneToOneField(User)
# custom fields for user
company_name = models.CharField(max_length=100)
To allow update user details within one request send to dj_rest_auth.views.UserDetailsView view, create serializer like this:
.. code-block:: python
from rest_framework import serializers
from dj_rest_auth.serializers import UserDetailsSerializer
class UserSerializer(UserDetailsSerializer):
company_name = serializers.CharField(source="userprofile.company_name")
class Meta(UserDetailsSerializer.Meta):
fields = UserDetailsSerializer.Meta.fields + ('company_name',)
def update(self, instance, validated_data):
profile_data = validated_data.pop('userprofile', {})
company_name = profile_data.get('company_name')
instance = super(UserSerializer, self).update(instance, validated_data)
# get and update user profile
profile = instance.userprofile
if profile_data and company_name:
profile.company_name = company_name
profile.save()
return instance
And setup USER_DETAILS_SERIALIZER in django settings:
.. code-block:: python
REST_AUTH_SERIALIZERS = {
'USER_DETAILS_SERIALIZER': 'demo.serializers.UserSerializer'
}
