django user; change password from shell

change_password.md

update django password

general changes

To use in dev environments

• after python manage.py shell

from django.contrib.auth.models import User

# dev environ with only a few users
l = User.objects.all() 

# show user list
print(l)

# get the 1st user
u = l[0]

# set the password
u.set_password('123') # for dev
u.save()

with custom user

• Only differs by initial import on 1st line

from tworaven_apps.raven_auth.models import User

# dev environ with only a few users
l = User.objects.all() 

# show user list
print(l)

# get the 1st user
u = l[0]

# set the password
u.set_password('123') # for dev
u.save()

Instead of showing all users, you can search by id, username or email

l = User.objects.get(username='someone')

or

l = User.objects.get(email='[email protected]')

or

l = User.objects.get(id=3)

in this case, Username or email must be unique to get object
