Django Authentication & User Management - Full Tutorial

[@tomasgorda]

Nice video, thanx again. One thing i have to mention: in a lot of your tutorials you are using a lot of external addons or resources (heroku, linode, retool etc…), but when you developping an applications for company with some security rules, mostly you have no chance to use any of them. So better is to use your local resources. Next think is a lot of registrations around these public resources.

[@sizu257]

I just finished to watch your first django tutorial, and now I'm going to eat and digest this 1 xDDDD. It's incredible how much I've learned from you. You are a legend!

[@TechWithTim]

Hope you enjoy!

[@sizu257]

@@TechWithTim You, Bucky Roberts, Giraffe Code Academy, Code Beauty, Computer Science Crash Course, Ben Eater, and all the community out there, you are my heroes! But from all, you taught me the most. Python, MySql, Django, Speech Recognition, Pygame, Clients with Sockets, and many, many others. Because of you, I know how to build my humongous project, that hopefully's going to change the shape of the world. I thank you with all my might!

[@the_bird_is_the_word.]

You are just so perfect Tim. Words can't express how grateful I am

[@aankie]

1:24:00 you don't have to apologise, you just have dry run get and post request, whether different way works..that rather helped me a lot to clearly understand the concept. Doing this alternatives in live is really helpful for the learner i guess.!

[@maestr0_6]

Tim I have a tip regarding what you showed :D If you are in an empty html file you can type one "!" and just press TAB! :D It will get you the same boilerplate html but faster. Keep up the great work!

[@rinoldaiman6441]

Thanks a lot bro. I was not able to authenticate new user but after watching this video it took only 2 mins to solve my problem which I was facing for more than 3 hours.

[@anashoussaini3915]

Thank you for the video, really well done. Although, I must say for Retool, I think it would be better to the admin panel by yourself. You will learn a lot by doing so. If someone is trying to build a web app with Django, it's impossible that they aren't programmers.

[@armsjarbcgaming1591]

agreed, nifty tool tho

[@shahinhashemi5799]

I assume it was done this way to plug Retool which is the sponsor

[@alfabetony]

loved that you used retool. working with the shell is hell to someone who doiesn't know much sql. Watching database changes via retool makes it seems so much nicer and sleek. The interface has changed since you made the video so i couldn't keep up with some of the retool stuff but i got the gist and will definitely look into using retool in the future.

[@pravachanpatra4012]

LETS GOO!!! Tim finally making DJANGO tutorials. We need a social media clone next.

[@sammy7762]

Yes

[@matt-xq1xv]

dude your videos are so good. i learned so much from them. thank you for making this awesome content.

[@usmanmonir5576]

Tutorial was awesome 👏 and have learnt a lot! One thing is while banning user the filter function was correct u just have to put .first() at the end as u did for the user, also for getting user u can simply use get function to be consistent. Thanks for such a great content!!!

[@omoraltanim5795]

57:24 From Django 4.2 logout through GET is depreciated. Use this instead of link to logout {% if user.is_authenticated %} Logged in as {{ user.username }} | {% csrf_token %} Logout {% else %} Login {% endif %}

[@kranfundefined]

You are almost right, we need to paste in action "{% url 'logout' %}" not 'admin:logout'

[@nikolaosioannou9668]

Hello Tim.Thank you for the cool tutorial. Helped a lot to understand the approach of permissions. Also, I have forked the project to propose a different way of removing the user from the groups, and to add a user to the group 'default' upon sign-up. Hope you find it useful and that I did not make the repo dirty. Take care and keep up with these sweet tutorials.

[@murshid956]

Is this video applicable to the django rest framework?

[@roronoa_shady3269]

Hey, Tim. I have been watching you for several years and I really like your content, the way you explain and show new things to us is great. I have learned a lot from you, also modified some of your projects. Really liked that video. And I was hoping you could make a video about AI - translator.

[@amirilifee]

let this comment be on the top)

[@myzel394]

38:48 Just a small hint: Don't use links that only contain the word "here". People who can't see well often use screen readers, which most of them have the ability to list out all links from a site. If the links now just contain the word "here", the person won't know where they'll be going.

[@armalite6837]

skill issue

[@NeoShinkai]

@@armalite6837 no funny

[@zeroday6379]

You have saved me big time on figuring out important basics. Thanks man.

[@krzysztofwachowiak8547]

Thanks. In your guide, I found the answer on how to properly define permission checking in views.

[@Vancha112]

We just started using django at work! Thanks :)

[@Michel-gv1sr]

Good tutorial, but somewhat ruined by the use of re-tool, just for marketing purposes.

[@TheNerdyPlayer]

this is exactly what i was looking for :) love your videos

[@javalex561]

Tim, you are the GOAT, would you please make a new video about Django 2fa?

[@aayushshrestha1210]

if the /logout doesn't work add def LogOut(request): logout(request) return redirect("/login/") to your views and create a custom url at the top of the urls file path("logout/", views.LogOut, name="logout"),

[@gramscihc7131]

Hey Tim, first you Rock, and second could you let me know what vscode extension you use for django templates, Thanks

[@blazenetic]

Epic content mate! Fantastic stuff, you are a great teacher.

[@ngnotchouetiam4851]

Hey Tim, Its a great video thank you so much. Just got a little problem with the postgres database, heroku doesn't offer free tiers any more and I tried using Linode instead but I was unable to connect to my database and I finally gave up on using postgres. Could you make a video explaining how to setup postgres database on linode and connect it with django it would be so much of a help thanks 🙏🙏

[@jonassonjp]

I got the same problem here. It's not free anymore 😥

[@besma702]

Did you other solution??

[@gsmtechzambia3985]

nice one @Tech with Tim. Can this be used with a REST or GraphQL API? Or do you have any tutorial you'd recommend for that?

[@lordtejas9659]

Yes, You can use REST API with Django, not sure about GraphQL!

[@amitavasengupta5580]

2:04 hrs why can't we import the Group and post_save globally?

[@kirollssabri4651]

Awesome I really was searching for these kinda videos thanks so much ❤️

[@juiceearthhh7225]

do you have a django rest framework course

[@amirilifee]

You teach many things. Keep it up✊✊✊

[@EDWIN-zg4yu]

first off, what others tutorials do you have about Django? And second, could I modify the post part so that my admin users can upload Docker files instead of only text?

[@valera723]

Hi thanks very much for this tutorial. Can you tell please what extensions do you use in the editor ?

[@manu-gt9gr]

nice video bro!

[@zeydtc]

This is really good. Thank you!

[@ComputerGeek1100]

Just wondering - what are you using for the syntax highlighting in the HTML templates? I’ve noticed that the default HTML intellisense in vscode doesn’t do that with the Django tags

[@firosiam7786]

Is any more go projects on the pipeline or was the api vedio last in that series

[@akangozan_kulbet]

would you like to share us, what the specificly the django version above ?

[@ohisideho3460]

Heroku is not freen anymore. Any other services you suggest to follow along with the tutorial?

[@sidharthcs2110]

How does login and logout work if the APIs are called from something like postman ? what information is letting the system know which user is trying to logout ?

[@genericbinary558]

You are using re-tool and there django admin panel is like :|

[@noajm4628]

What do you mean*_

[@tommasol.m.a.giambelli1643]

Hi Tim! Quick question: why do you need a specific sign-up url and not need a login url? Is it because you expanded the pre-built sign-up class?

[@rakshanaravindran9809]

I too have doubt??is it is a builin function

[@Kappq]

The fact that just today I was trying to setup user authentication with Django and this video comes up- please remove the hidden cameras from my house. 😭😂

[@zeroday6379]

Great content. I have tried to modify the signup page to incorporate things like phone number and country, however, these changes appears at the frontend and doesn't appear on the database, is there something I am not doing right?

[@dennisdegraphicsdynamo_999]

Hello @Tim I know this video is a year now....but please comment on this post. I wanna know how I will deploy my code since heroku is dead....no more free offers. Please tell me the best option to do. I need your reply as fast as possible please

[@MaqsudMaxmudov]

40:08 ‼‼‼‼‼‼‼please, read fully. I spend 2 hours to fix this thing. you should make change in your settings other than which shown video. this is: TEMPLATES [ { 'BACKEND': 'django.template.backends.django.DjangoTemplates', 'DIRS': [BASE_DIR / '/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.11/lib/python3.11/site-packages'], # templates location( crispy ) } ]

[@littlepics2733]

Seems to be a nice tutorial

[@vaqowski6669]

1:22:17 ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) Anyway i have a little bit of constructive comments about the tutorial. I hope it would be helpfull in the future tutorials. First of all i think that sticking to the general programming good practises would be a great idea. For example if you are creating a template, a view, a model or a form let it handle just one thing. For example separte templates for navbar, creating post, ect. Or you are useing a lot of logic inside home view, i would separate the logic to the differrent functions - so it allows me to stick to the KISS and SOLID principles. But besides that great tutroial, You explained very solid how to use User model from django and also generic forms it gaves me a lot of understanding which i didnt have before watching, thanks.

[@AnantSrivastava-h7n]

tim i do it same but logout not work it says that the page isnot working right now plz help

[@k-kamori8842]

Hello, I have encountered a UserCreationForm error. It says "cannot import name 'usercreationform' from partially initialized module". How do I fix this?

[@hanstemple6038]

This isn't fair. watching such an amazing video with 1.12million views and getting only 1.2k likes come on guys you can do better

[@omarjones8481]

maybe because a lot of us can't finish being that Heroku isn't free and that stopped the viewing on a bad note

[@CCapsule]

Is this something we can put on our resume?

[@motlatsimoea]

So I tried to customize the "password_change" Auth by creating a template with the same name and for some reason it keeps sending me to that default template. Any idea why?

[@vaqmad]

Actually you need to point the other template, or ovevwrite the existing by creaating template with correct name of file

[@ZuRqi]

Is this for beginners too?

[@borisbob]

Thanks,very nice awesome content

[@TheIvanlisi]

Do you have logout option in the code?

[@jessicam3256]

Thank you for this amazing video! But I was stuck at the retool dashoboard setup, after I entered "select * from pg_catalog.pg_tables", i got an error of "self signed certificate"... anyone knows how to solve it? @@

Y don't you map login in url..is it is a built-in function in python

Do you have the beginning django?

[@rec-trick]

awesome

[@jdchannelviewer]

FYI: I don't think Heroku is free anymore.

[@growlinghuel9766]

Worth pointing out. I've started a few different tutorials and stopped at the point when they tell us we'll require Heroku to complete the work.

[@ILCGyangcczmyiyan]

what happens if I dont use crispy, I just type form.as_p

[@BGOPC]

i don't want to disrespect but i guess i'm more expert in django CSRF token is a special type of web token used to authenticate it's a hidden input with special value which will be your auth key at the server

[@shibmobileverse468]

Can anyone else use the SSL? I had to disable it in Retool and skip certificates in order for it to connect. :( (Free Version of both Heroku + Retool)

[@truthdawn7773]

Great 👌💯

[@uclocnguyenvo422]

57:34 It is confused for me right here. How can the base.html know the variable user if we do not pass it from the view?

[@kidjr.9520]

Because of the request. that we are sending .When you are not logged in in your request will be shown as anonymous user whereas if you are logged in your user information will be passed with the request.

[@vinayakram5133]

Is this is for begineers..

[@Vancha112]

Django itself is pretty beginner friendly, this specific tutorial is not really :(

[@matteobucci6517]

The youtube algorithm wants short videos, I understand that. 'Short videos' means a lot of information in a very short amount of time. I'm already not a fan of that, but I really don't understand why you're going THAT fast in your video with so little explanation about what your doing. This is a 2 and a half hour video, it's a bloody TUTORIAL made for people who want to learn. This should have been a 5-hour-long video and if people aren't interested in one of the topics they can simply skip it. Learning in these conditions is just horrible and if I had a professor that was teaching that way, I'd never show up to the classes. I hope this was good criticism.

[@yogeshshrestha1745]

Thankyou sir I got my answer you helped a lot
