A simple backend which allows you to login with either an email address or a username.
It should be combined with another backend for checking permissions:
AUTHENTICATION_BACKENDS = (
'myproject.accounts.backends.EmailOrUsernameModelBackend',
'django.contrib.auth.backends.ModelBackend'
)
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 | from django.conf import settings
from django.contrib.auth.models import User
class EmailOrUsernameModelBackend(object):
def authenticate(self, username=None, password=None):
if '@' in username:
kwargs = {'email': username}
else:
kwargs = {'username': username}
try:
user = User.objects.get(**kwargs)
if user.check_password(password):
return user
except User.DoesNotExist:
return None
def get_user(self, user_id):
try:
return User.objects.get(pk=user_id)
except User.DoesNotExist:
return None

If you want to do this, be sure to forbid the '@' character in usernames. Otherwise some serious problems can arise.

But it does'nt work
