I'm working with ALLAUTH on Django 3.2. Most solutions I found are for Django 1, so I'm hoping to find something more up-to-date here. I have the module/app installed, but I'm having problems overriding the templates with my own.
In settings.py:
INSTALLED_APPS = [
...
'Landing.apps.LandingConfig',
'allauth',
'allauth.account',
'allauth.socialaccount',
'allauth.socialaccount.providers.google'
]
TEMPLATES = [
{
'BACKEND': 'django.template.backends.django.DjangoTemplates',
'DIRS': [
BASE_DIR / 'templates'
],
'APP_DIRS': True,
'OPTIONS': {
'context_processors': [
# Already defined Django-related contexts here
# `allauth` needs this from django
'django.template.context_processors.request',
],
},
},
]
AUTHENTICATION_BACKENDS = [
# Needed to login by username in Django admin, regardless of `allauth`
'django.contrib.auth.backends.ModelBackend',
# `allauth` specific authentication methods, such as login by e-mail
'allauth.account.auth_backends.AuthenticationBackend',
]
Research Urls #The Project
from django.contrib import admin
from django.urls import path, include
urlpatterns = [
path('', include('Landing.urls')),
path('admin/', admin.site.urls),
path('accounts/', include('allauth.urls')),
]
Landing/urls.py #app-level urls
from django.contrib import admin
from django.urls import path, include
from . import views
urlpatterns = [
path('', views.home, name='home'),
path('login/', views.LoginView.as_view(), name='account_login'),
path('signup/', views.SignupView.as_view(), name='account_signup')
]
Home.html
<...>
<body>
<H1>This is the homepage</H1>
<p><a href="{% url 'account_login' %}">login</a></p>
<p><a href="{% url 'account_signup' %}">Create Account</a></p>
</body>
<...>
Note: account_login and account_signup are both in Landing urls and Landing Views
Landing Views
from django.shortcuts import render
from allauth.account.views import LoginView, SignupView
# Create your views here.
def home(request):
return render(request, 'Landing/home.html')
class LandingLogin(LoginView):
print('found Login View....')
template_name = 'authentication/login.html'
class LandingSignup(SignupView):
print('found Login View....')
template_name = 'authentication/account_signup.html'
My Tree
I can navigate to localhost:8000, and when the html comes up, two things occur:
- links on home.html still point to allauth links
- Landing/Home points to the custom template, but it still routes to the allauth page.
How can set the view, link, and route to the correct page?
Thanks!
