User model override and authentication

[Rafael Noronha]

Hello guys,
I'm not advanced in Django and would like to know how and if it's possible to do it.

I need to override Django's user model, and change the fields "username" to "sr_usuario" and "password" to "sr_password", but I would like to continue using all Django's default authentication scheme and permissions. I want not only to change the description in the database or a label, I want to change the name of the field in the model, for when for example I needed to make a query, I would use User.objects.filter(sr_usuario="user_name") and everything would work usually.

It's possible? I couldn't find anything in the documentation or on forums I've searched.

Thank you very much in advance!

I never tried this, but maybe you can.

Inherit the User model, then add two new lines:

class DerivedUser(User):

    .....

    sr_usuario = username

    sr_password = password

If I may ask: why do you want to do this? If you just want to change what's displayed on Django Admin for example, you can do that without messing up with the code.
