As of now, I have my registration form and my log in form on two different pages, I can't seem to put them in one view because the way I did it, the views require different return statements. So here is my registration view function:
def register_user(request):
if request.method == 'POST':
form = MyRegistrationForm(request.POST)
if form.is_valid():
form.save()
return HttpResponseRedirect('/accounts/register_success')
args = {}
args.update(csrf(request))
args['form'] = MyRegistrationForm()
return render_to_response('register.html', args)
def register_success(request):
return render_to_response('register_success.html')
and here is my log in and authentication view:
def login(request):
c = {}
c.update(csrf(request))
return render_to_response('login.html', c)
def auth_view(request):
username = request.POST.get('username', '')
password = request.POST.get('password', '')
user = auth.authenticate(username=username, password=password)
if user is not None:
auth.login(request, user)
return HttpResponseRedirect('/accounts/loggedin')
else:
return HttpResponseRedirect('/accounts/invalid')
Here is the template for the log in page:
<form action="/accounts/auth/" method="post">{% csrf_token %}
<label for="username">User name:</label>
<input type="text" name="username" value="" id="username">
<label for="password">Password:</label>
<input type="password" name="password" value="" id="password">
<input type="submit" value="login" />
</form>
and here is the template for the registration page:
<h2>Register</h2>
<form action="/accounts/register/" method="post">{% csrf_token %}
{{form}}
<input type="submit" value="Register" />
</form>
Again, I can't seem to put them together because the views have to return different things.. any idea on how to do it?
EDIT: This is my urls.py:
url(r'^admin/', include(admin.site.urls)),
url(r'^$', index),
url(r'^accounts/auth/$', auth_view),
url(r'^invalid/$', invalid_login),
url(r'^accounts/register/$', register_user),
url(r'^accounts/register_success/$', register_success),
so it will only use the register_user view if the url is accounts/register, I want it to user the register_view view if it is the homepage (^$). My index view is this:
def index(request):
c = {}
c.update(csrf(request))
return render_to_response('index.html', c)
it basically just adds a csrf token to my index.html (log in template, as seen above). This is why I want to be able to somehow merge index and the register_user view, since register_user view calls the actual form = MyRegistrationForm(request.POST) which is used in the registration template (the registration template uses {{form}}

If you just want to show login and registration on the same page. Create a html page with two forms. Action of one of them to url '/accounts/register/' and another one to '/accounts/auth/'.
for example, change your register.html to:
<html>
<head><body>
<form action="/accounts/auth/" method="post">{% csrf_token %}
<label for="username">User name:</label>
<input type="text" name="username" value="" id="username">
<label for="password">Password:</label>
<input type="password" name="password" value="" id="password">
<input type="submit" value="login" />
</form>
<h2>Register</h2>
<form action="/accounts/register/" method="post">{% csrf_token %}
{{form}}
<input type="submit" value="Register" />
</form>
</body>
</html>
When submit the form, it will go to corresponding view and redirect based on that view.
EDIT:To pass a MyRegistrationForm instance you can update the index view as follows:
def index(request):
c = {}
c.update(csrf(request))
c.update({'form':MyRegistrationForm()})
return render_to_response('index.html', c)
use the login.html as above html code in the answer.
