How can I log-in the user programmatically in Django? I have the username and password of the User. Is there a method that let's me log him in?

Authentication Views Django provides several views that you can use for handling login, logout, and password management. These make use of the stock auth forms but you can pass in your own forms as well. Django provides no default template for the authentication views.
There is no other way than "programmatically". Of course, this is documented.
from django.contrib.auth import authenticate, login user = authenticate(username=username, password=password) if user is not None: login(request, user) If you love us? You can donate to us via Paypal or buy me a coffee so we can maintain and grow! Thank you!
