如何更新Standart Django模型（auth_user）

Question

I would like to add new field into existing model (in this case - User(auth_user)). For example, there are fields "first_name", "last_name", "email".. etc. Please advise how best to implement this?

Answer 1

You can extend or create you own substitute User model. In my point of view is better to create your own.

from django.db import models
from django.contrib.auth.models import AbstractUser

class User(AbstractUser):
    my_field = models.CharField(max_length = 150)

and then in your settings.py

AUTH_USER_MODEL = 'myapp.User'

I hope this help you.
