Add user email verification to custom user model

[Manuel Buri]

Hi, I am a bit lost while trying to add user email verification step to my custom user model that is based on AbstractBaseUser. Did someone do that already or if not how should I do it differently?
Thank you so much!

Your ask is not clear,..What is wrong ? What is the error message? If you need validate the email format, here is one javascript example :

function validaemail(email) {
if(email=="correo"){
    var x = document.getElementById("correo").value
} else {
    var x = document.getElementById("correo_apod").value
}

    if(x!='') {
        var expr = /^([a-zA-Z0-9_\.\-])+\@(([a-zA-Z0-9\-])+\.)+([a-zA-Z0-9]{2,4})+$/;
        if ( !expr.test(x) ) {
            alert("Error: La dirección de correo " + x + " es incorrecta.");
            document.getElementById("correo").value = "";
        }
    }
}

Hi sorry for being unclear...
I currently have this standard user model:

from django.db import models
from django.contrib.auth.models import AbstractBaseUser, BaseUserManager


class MyAccountManager(BaseUserManager):
   def create_user(self, email, username, first_name, last_name, password=None):
      if not email:
         raise ValueError('Users must have an email address')
      # if not username:
      #  raise ValueError('Users must have a username')
      if not first_name:
         raise ValueError('Users must have a first name')
      if not last_name:
         raise ValueError('Users must have a last name')

      user = self.model(
         email=self.normalize_email(email),
         # username=username,
         first_name=first_name,
         last_name=last_name
      )

      user.set_password(password)
      user.save(using=self._db)
      return user

   def create_superuser(self, email, password):
      user = self.create_user(
         email=self.normalize_email(email),
         password=password,
         # username=username,
      )
      user.is_admin = True
      user.is_staff = True
      user.is_superuser = True
      user.save(using=self._db)
      return user


class Account(AbstractBaseUser):
   email              = models.EmailField(verbose_name="email", max_length=60, unique=True)
   # username              = models.CharField(max_length=30, unique=True)
   # TODO: for production do not allow null field
   first_name          = models.CharField(verbose_name="first_name", max_length=40)
   last_name           = models.CharField(verbose_name="last_name", max_length=40)
   date_joined             = models.DateTimeField(verbose_name='date joined', auto_now_add=True)
   last_login          = models.DateTimeField(verbose_name='last login', auto_now=True)
   is_admin            = models.BooleanField(default=False)
   is_active           = models.BooleanField(default=True)
   is_staff            = models.BooleanField(default=False)
   is_superuser         = models.BooleanField(default=False)


   USERNAME_FIELD = 'email'
   REQUIRED_FIELDS = ['first_name','last_name']

   objects = MyAccountManager()

   def __str__(self):
      return self.email

   # For checking permissions. to keep it simple all admin have ALL permissons
   def has_perm(self, perm, obj=None):
      return self.is_admin

   # Does this user have permission to view this app? (ALWAYS YES FOR SIMPLICITY)
   def has_module_perms(self, app_label):
      return True

And know I would like to implement an email verification step that sets the user to active when verified using allauth django package.

But I do not know how to do it...

Best wishes,

Manuel

Actually, it is far from trivial or close to impossible to correctly
validate an email address using, eg. a regular expression:

https://emailregex.com/

The best you can do is to try to send an email to whatever is provided
and ask the user to confirm which seems to be what Manuel is trying to
do, although I agree that was far from clear in the original question.

Thank you very much for your help.

I made it work! Please let me know if I need to explain it to someone else.
