Django Mail Auth is a lightweight authentication backend for Django,
that does not require users to remember passwords.

Django Mail Auth features:

- custom user model support
- drop in Django admin support
- drop in Django User replacement
- extendable SMS support

This project was inspired by:

- `Is it time for password-less login?`_ by `Ben Brown`_
- `LOGIN WITHOUT PASSWORD MOST SECURE | WAIT.. WHAT?`_ by `Joris Snoek`_
- `django-nopassword`_ by `Rolf Erik Lekang`_

Installation
------------

Run this command to install ``django-mail-auth``::

    pip install django-mail-auth


Setup
-----

First add `mailauth` to you installed apps::

    INSTALLED_APPS = [
        # Django's builtin apps…

        'mailauth',
        'mailauth.contrib.admin',  # optional
        'mailauth.contrib.user',  # optional

        # other apps…
    ]

`mailauth.contrib.admin` is optional and will replace the admin's login
with token based authentication too.

`mailauth.contrib.auth` is optional and provides a new Django User model.
The new User model needs to be enabled via the ``AUTH_USER_MODEL`` setting::

    AUTH_USER_MODEL = 'mailauth_user.EmailUser'

Next you will need to add the new authentication backend::

    AUTHENTICATION_BACKENDS = (
        # default, but now optional
        # This should be removed if you use mailauth.contrib.user or any other
        # custom user model that does not have a username/password
        'django.contrib.auth.backends.ModelBackend',

        # The new access token based authentication backend
        'mailauth.backends.MailAuthBackend',
    )

Django's `ModelBackend` is only only needed, if you still want to support
password based authentication. If you don't, simply remove it from the list.

Last but not least, go to your URL root config `urls.py` and add the following::

    from django.urls import path


    urlpatterns = [
        path('accounts/', include('mailauth.urls')),
    ]

That's it!

.. note:: Don't forget to setup you Email backend!
