I have a custom user model that uses email for login and does not have a username field. I am trying to use dj-rest-auth for rest-based user registration and login.
I placed the following in my settings.py:
SITE_ID = 1
AUTH_USER_MODEL = "users.User"
ACCOUNT_EMAIL_VERIFICATION = "none"
ACCOUNT_AUTHENTICATION_METHOD = 'email'
ACCOUNT_EMAIL_REQUIRED = True
ACCOUNT_UNIQUE_EMAIL = True
ACCOUNT_USERNAME_REQUIRED = False
AUTHENTICATION_BACKENDS = (
"django.contrib.auth.backends.ModelBackend",
"allauth.account.auth_backends.AuthenticationBackend",
)
REST_AUTH_REGISTER_SERIALIZERS = {
'REGISTER_SERIALIZER': 'users.serializers.CustomRegisterSerializer',
}
When trying to register via the registration endpoint the execution never even reaches my custom registration serializer, as it raises an error

Funny thing is, if I just remove lines in /site-packages/dj_rest_auth/registration/serializers.py that say
username = serializers.CharField(
max_length=get_username_max_length(),
min_length=allauth_settings.USERNAME_MIN_LENGTH,
required=allauth_settings.USERNAME_REQUIRED
)
the registration runs flawlessly and gets to the point where it picks up my custom serializer and lets me register new users without any problem. But directly tampering with the package files like this does seem like an awfully hacky solution.
Does anybody know how I can get rid of the error above without editing the source code of the dj_rest_auth package?
Edit: Here is the code for my Custom Register Serializer:
class CustomRegisterSerializer(serializers.Serializer):
email = serializers.EmailField(required=True)
password1 = serializers.CharField(write_only=True)
password2 = serializers.CharField(write_only=True)
def get_cleaned_data(self):
return {
"password": self.validated_data.get("password1", ""),
"email": self.validated_data.get("email", ""),
}
def save(self, request):
self.cleaned_data = self.get_cleaned_data()
user = User(**self.cleaned_data)
user.save()
return user
So I was wondering why the import of the 4 other serializers triggered the error and then spotted it:
class RegisterSerializer(serializers.Serializer):
username = serializers.CharField(
max_length=get_username_max_length(),
min_length=allauth_settings.USERNAME_MIN_LENGTH,
required=allauth_settings.USERNAME_REQUIRED
)
The function get_username_max_length() is invoked at declaration time, which calls the allauth utility method that imports the user model and gets the max length from the field.
Your fix is to set ACCOUNT_USER_MODEL_USERNAME_FIELD to None in settings, so that it simply returns 0 without trying to get the username field from the user model.
