USERNAME_FIELD A string describing the name of the field on the User model that is used as the unique identifier. This will usually be a username of some kind, but it can also be an email address, or any other unique identifier. The field must be unique (i.e., have unique=True set in its definition), unless you use a custom authentication backend that can support non-unique usernames. In the following example, the field identifier is used as the identifying field: class MyUser(AbstractBaseUs

REQUIRED_FIELDS A list of the field names that will be prompted for when creating a user via the createsuperuser management command. The user will be prompted to supply a value for each of these fields. It must include any field for which blank is False or undefined and may include additional fields you want prompted for when a user is created interactively. REQUIRED_FIELDS has no effect in other parts of Django, like creating a user in the admin. For example, here is the partial definition

class models.CustomUserManager create_user(*username_field*, password=None, **other_fields) The prototype of create_user() should accept the username field, plus all required fields as arguments. For example, if your user model uses email as the username field, and has date_of_birth as a required field, then create_user should be defined as: def create_user(self, email, date_of_birth, password=None): # create user here ... create_superuser(*username_field*, password, **other_

create_user(*username_field*, password=None, **other_fields) The prototype of create_user() should accept the username field, plus all required fields as arguments. For example, if your user model uses email as the username field, and has date_of_birth as a required field, then create_user should be defined as: def create_user(self, email, date_of_birth, password=None): # create user here ...

create_superuser(*username_field*, password, **other_fields) The prototype of create_superuser() should accept the username field, plus all required fields as arguments. For example, if your user model uses email as the username field, and has date_of_birth as a required field, then create_superuser should be defined as: def create_superuser(self, email, date_of_birth, password): # create superuser here ... Unlike create_user(), create_superuser() must require the caller to provide

get_by_natural_key(username) Retrieves a user instance using the contents of the field nominated by USERNAME_FIELD.
