Can we use this without django forms? about django-verify-email HOT 7 CLOSED

probably not, haven't tried it but I guess not, this is majorly dependent on Django forms.

Hello Developers,

I am registering the user in my app using a custom html form submission, Is there any way to use this tool in my app so that I can use this one?

Thankyou.

I am currently using this without django forms. Like so: send_verification_email(request,new_user).
I am encountering errors but it works. I have a custom user model and am initializing the new_user with User model object.

Oh that's great I will definitely try with that. Thankyou @snehilbanawal .

@snehilbanawal Hey snehil, Mind explaining how you achieved it?

Do you mean you create a user object with your user model,

new_user = your_user_model.objects.create(whatever='val')

then pass that to send_verification_email like

send_verification_email(request,new_user)

@foo290 also I was successfully able to override some methods and functions to make this work with User objects instead of forms. If that's something you'd like added to the lib, I can put together a PR.

sure, we can just inspect if the passed object is of user object or form and proceed based on that. That'll make it work without Django forms without any need to override method.

oh of course, overriding is only necessary when I'm needing to make changes to it without modifying the source.

it's a very small change indeed. the function will also need a signature change to include email=None so that the view gets the email address because there is no form being passed. @foo290

P S: Great work on the lib BTW!!
