This package allows to authenticate a user with either a username an email address, or both. It overrides Django authenticate method, so it should work in almost any case of use, without touch anything else. For support and aditional documentation, in case you need it, please visit our Github repository .

Installation

Run:

pip install django-dual-authentication

Then, add this line to your settings.py:

AUTHENTICATION_BACKENDS = ['django-dual-authentication.backends.DualAuthentication']

Supported versions

  • Python >= 2.7

  • Django >= 1.5

Common issues

We’ve been reported about users having problems with MySQL and dual-authentication case sensitive option. This is because mysql is case-insensitive by default. So, if you need case sensitive authentication, probably you’d prefer avoid this database engine.
