I'm following this tutorial from Mozilla.org,
Setting up your authentication views
And I'm having problems in this part:
The next step is to create a registration directory on the search path and then add the login.html file.
Because I've created that directory and the template but it appears that is not been recognize by my app.
Structure:
Note: Your folder structure should now look like the below:
locallibrary (Django project folder)
|_catalog
|_locallibrary
|_templates (new)
|_registration
My Structure:
And then for this part:
make these directories visible to the template loader
I've:
TEMPLATES = [
{
'BACKEND': 'django.template.backends.django.DjangoTemplates',
#'DIRS': [os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'templates')],
'DIRS': ['./templates',],
'APP_DIRS': True,
'OPTIONS': {
'context_processors': [
'django.template.context_processors.debug',
'django.template.context_processors.request',
'django.contrib.auth.context_processors.auth',
'django.contrib.messages.context_processors.messages',
],
},
},
]
Project url.pý:
from django.contrib import admin
from django.urls import path, include
from main_app import views
urlpatterns = [
path('accounts/', include('django.contrib.auth.urls')),
path('admin/', admin.site.urls),
path('', include('main_app.urls')),
]
For my login.html template I've:
<!doctype html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1, shrink-to-fit=no">
<meta name="description" content="">
<meta name="author" content="">
<link rel="icon" href="../../../../favicon.ico">

{% block content %}
{% if form.errors %}
<p>Your username and password didn't match. Please try again.</p>
{% endif %}
{% if next %}
{% if user.is_authenticated %}
<p>Your account doesn't have access to this page. To proceed,
please login with an account that has access.</p>
{% else %}
<p>Please login to see this page.</p>
{% endif %}
{% endif %}
<form method="post" action="{% url 'login' %}">
{% csrf_token %}
<div>
<td>{{ form.username.label_tag }}</td>
<td>{{ form.username }}</td>
</div>
<div>
<td>{{ form.password.label_tag }}</td>
<td>{{ form.password }}</td>
</div>
<div>
<input type="submit" value="login" />
<input type="hidden" name="next" value="{{ next }}" />
</div>
</form>
{# Assumes you setup the password_reset view in your URLconf #}
<p><a href="{% url 'password_reset' %}">Lost password?</a></p>
{% endblock %}
</html>
According to the tutorial I should navigate to:
http://127.0.0.1:8000/accounts/login/
and see this:
But I'm seeing:
TemplateDoesNotExist at /accounts/login/ registration/login.html

you must not create your template in project setting folder.
you can create template directory in your project root directory like this:
gallito (Django project folder)
|_gallito
|_templates (new)
|_registration
you can see template directory is in your project root beside your app directory. not in your settings directory.
also you can move your template directory into your project template directory

For me worked adding:
'DIRS': [os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'templates')],
Take care to delete browser cache.

add your app's name gallito to INSTALLED_APPS inside the file settings.py if your code is like this
INSTALLED_APPS = [
'django.contrib.admin',
'django.contrib.auth',
'django.contrib.contenttypes',
'django.contrib.sessions',
'django.contrib.messages',
'django.contrib.staticfiles',
]
then change it to this
INSTALLED_APPS = [
'django.contrib.admin',
'django.contrib.auth',
'django.contrib.contenttypes',
'django.contrib.sessions',
'django.contrib.messages',
'django.contrib.staticfiles',
'gallito',
]
