Ive been running into a number of problem in relation to using django's custom model. This one in particular is not raising any errors. For some reason after authenticating via steam and returning to the landing page the database tables for both steamuser_user (custom user) and social_auth_usersocialauth are empty. Nothing is being saved, no errors are being displayed etc.
My custom model which is quite similar to the one on django docs official page is as follows:
from django.db import models
from django.contrib.auth.models import AbstractBaseUser
from django.contrib.auth.models import BaseUserManager
# Create your models here.
class UserManager(BaseUserManager):
def create_user(self, steamid, username, password=None):
if not steamid:
msg = 'User has no Steam ID set'
raise ValueError(msg)
if not username:
msg = 'User has no name set'
raise ValueError(msg)
user = self.model(steamid=steamid,
username=username)
user.set_password(password)
user.save(using=self._db)
return user
def create_superuser(self, steamid, username, password):
super_user = self.create_user(steamid=steamid,
username=username,
password=password)
super_user.is_staff = True
super_user.is_admin = True
super_user.is_mod = True
super_user.save(using=self._db)
return super_user
class User(AbstractBaseUser):
steamid = models.CharField(max_length=20, unique=True)
username = models.CharField(max_length=80)
email = models.EmailField(null=True,blank=True)
is_active = models.BooleanField(default=True)
is_staff = models.BooleanField(default=False)
is_admin = models.BooleanField(default=False)
is_mod = models.BooleanField(default=False)
date_joined = models.DateTimeField(auto_now_add=True)
reputation = models.IntegerField(max_length=6, default=0)
USERNAME_FIELD = 'steamid'
objects = UserManager()
def __unicode__(self):
return self.username
def get_full_name(self):
return self.steamid
def get_short_name(self):
return self.username
The settings I've used are as follows:
SOCIAL_AUTH_USER_MODEL = 'steamuser.User'
AUTH_USER_MODEL = 'steamuser.User'
TEMPLATE_CONTEXT_PROCESSORS = global_settings.TEMPLATE_CONTEXT_PROCESSORS + (
'social.apps.django_app.context_processors.backends',
'social.apps.django_app.context_processors.login_redirect',
)
AUTHENTICATION_BACKENDS = (
'social.backends.steam.SteamOpenId',
'django.contrib.auth.backends.ModelBackend',
)
#Steam OpenAuth
SOCIAL_AUTH_STEAM_API_KEY = 'B1D7C629D093D4B72577F2F11DE4EBE2'
LOGIN_URL = '/'
SOCIAL_AUTH_LOGIN_REDIRECT_URL = '/'
SOCIAL_AUTH_ENABLED_BACKENDS = (
'steam',
)
Any help would be appreciated!
EDIT
Backends steam.py
def get_user_details(self, response):
player = self.get_json(USER_INFO, params={
'key': self.setting('API_KEY'),
'steamids': self._user_id(response)
})
if len(player['response']['players']) > 0:
player = player['response']['players'][0]
details = {'steamid': player.get('steamid'),
'username': player.get('personaname'),
}
else:
details = {}
return details
EDIT 2
Well despite my logical reasoning, I just gave up and created a custom pipeline to create the new steam user as follows:
from django.contrib.auth import get_user_model
def create_steamuser(details, user=None, *args, **kwargs):
if user:
return {'is_new': False}
if not details:
return
try:
steam_user = get_user_model().objects.get(steamid=details['steamid'])
except steam_user.DoesNotExist:
get_user_model().objects.create_user(details['steamid'], details['username'])
return {
'is_new': True,
}
Now I still have the problem where social_user is not being created. I've set the social user model to use my new custom model but there must be something that I am missing.
