django-inspectional-registration is a enhanced application of django-registration. The following features are available

• Inspection steps for registration. You can accept or reject the account registration before sending activation key to the user.
• Password will be filled in after the activation step to prevent that the user forget them previously filled password in registration step (No password filling in registration step)
• Password can be generated programatically and force to activate the user. The generated password will be sent to the user by e-mail.
• Any Django models are available to use as supplemental information of registration if the models are subclasses of registration.supplements.RegistrationSupplementBase. It is commonly used for inspection.
• You can send any additional messages to the user in each steps (acceptance, rejection and activation)
• The behaviors of the application are customizable with Backend feature.
• The E-mails or HTMLs are customizable with Django template system.
• Can be migrated from django-registration simply by south

Online documentation

See django-inspectional-registration official documents for more detail

For translators

To create a message file, execute the following command (with your language)

$ python manage.py makemessages -l ja

You can compile the latest message files with the following command

$ python setup.py compile_messages

The command above is automatically called before sdist command if you call python manage.py sdist.

Email

REGISTRATION_FROM_EMAIL is used as the FROM email address emails send by django-inspectional-registration. If REGISTRATION_FROM_EMAIL is not set the Django setting _DEFAULT_FROM_EMAIL: <https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/settings/#default-from-email/> will be used instead.

To set REGISTRATION_FROM_EMAIL add REGISTRATION_FROM_EMAIL to your settings file.

Example:

REGISTRATION_FROM_EMAIL = 'help@example.com'

Backward incompatibility

Because of an issue#24, django-inspectional-registration add the following three new options.

• REGISTRATION_DJANGO_AUTH_URLS_ENABLE If it is False, django-inspectional-registration do not define the views of django.contrib.auth. It is required to define these view manually. (Default: True)
• REGISTRATION_DJANGO_AUTH_URL_NAMES_PREFIX It is used as a prefix string of view names of django.contrib.auth. For backward compatibility, set this value to 'auth_'. (Default: '')
• REGISTRATION_DJANGO_AUTH_URL_NAMES_SUFFIX It is used as a suffix string of view names of django.contrib.auth. For backward compatibility, set this value to ''. (Default: '')

This changes were introduced from version 0.4.0, to keep the backward compatibility, write the following in your settings module.

REGISTRATION_DJANGO_AUTH_URLS_ENABLE = True
REGISTRATION_DJANGO_AUTH_URL_NAMES_PREFIX = 'auth_'
REGISTRATION_DJANGO_AUTH_URL_NAMES_SUFFIX = ''

Because of an issue#36, django-inspectional-registration add the following new option.

• REGISTRATION_USE_OBJECT_PERMISSION If it is True, django-inspectional-registration pass obj to request.user.has_perm in RegistrationAdmin.has_*_permission() methods. A default permission backend of Django does not support object permission thus it should be False if you don't use extra permission backends such as django-permission.

This change was introduced from version 0.4.7. To keep backward compatibility, write the following in your settings module.

REGISTRATION_USE_OBJECT_PERMISSION = True
