Reference Project

For convenience, we provide a reference project which implements all of the conventional user-flows for sign up, sign in and account management. Feel free to use this project to guide your implementation of django_flex_user.

You can try a live version of the reference project here. Or, you can run the reference project on your local machine.

Running the reference project locally

1. Clone the git repository:

   $ mkdir django-flex-user
   $ cd django-flex-user
   $ git clone https://github.com/ebenh/django-flex-user
   

2. Create an .env file with the following contents:

   DEBUG=1
   SECRET_KEY=NOT_FOR_PRODUCTION_x-)pi_7=*sqrnqeo!!p*986207*n4-!4xa&hd(lq&@@p0m=4*(

   SOCIAL_AUTH_FACEBOOK_KEY=...
   SOCIAL_AUTH_FACEBOOK_SECRET=...
