Settings

You should specify settings in your settings.py like this:

SCATTERAUTH_USER_PUBKEY_FIELD = 'pubkey'
SCATTERAUTH_USER_SIGNUP_FIELDS = ['email', 'username']

In the above example the following User model is used:

from django.contrib.auth.models import AbstractUser
from django.db import models
from django.utils.translation import ugettext_lazy as _

class User(AbstractUser):
    pubkey = models.CharField(max_length=53, verbose_name=_("Public key"), unique=True, null=True, blank=True)

    def __str__(self):
        return self.username

Here’s a list of available settings:

Setting	Default	Description
SCATTERAUTH_SIGNUP_ENABLED	True	If False, new users won’t be able to sign up (used in signup_view)
SCATTERAUTH_USER_SIGNUP_FIELDS	[‘email’]	Specifies field to be used in signup form for a new User model
SCATTERAUTH_USER_PUBKEY_FIELD	‘username’	Field on the User model, which has public key to check against.
SCATTERAUTH_DOMAIN	‘’	Determines what domain to use for signature verification. If ‘’ - request.get_host() is used
