Doubt about Custom User Model

[pastrufazio]

Hi!

I've read some examples about custom User Model. In all of them, it's suggested implement the class AbtractUser (in this case the app is called users)

For instance, in this example https://wsvincent.com/django-custom-user-model-tutorial/ they do

 users/models.py
from django.contrib.auth.models import AbstractUser
from django.db import models

class CustomUser(AbstractUser):
 

but then they say to include users.apps.UserConfig. Why? Where does it come from? Why not  the class users.apps.CustomUser ?

# djauth/settings.py
INSTALLED_APPS = [
...
    'users.apps.UsersConfig', 
]

Thank you very much

Hi 

Models always do belong to app. All apps do have AppConfig (one or more)

So when adding app (and thus models) to INSTALLED_APPS you need to point to which AppConfig you use (defined in apps.py)
