Yet another authentication by email address. This one is quick and dirty as we are saving email address in both Username and Email fields. For proper way how to deal with it see

from django.contrib.auth.forms import UserCreationForm
from django.core.validators import validate_email
from django import forms
class UserRegisterForm(UserCreationForm):
# we are using email as username so override label and validators
username = forms.CharField(
label = "Email:",
max_length = 30,
required = True,
validators=[validate_email],
)
# ====================================================
# views.py:
from django.views.generic.edit import FormView
class UserRegister(FormView):
template_name = 'form_general.html'
form_class = UserRegisterForm
success_url = '/user/'
def form_valid(self, form):
# we are using email as username so let's copy it also to email field
user = form.save(commit=False)
user.email = user.username
user.save()
return super(UserRegister, self).form_valid(form)

30 characters is quite short for an e-mail address. I have a similar hack, and the first thing I installed was the 'longerusername' application.
