django example: trying to get only the email auth work for now...

[YAmikep]

Hi,

First, let me tell you that I really like your work with this app.
I am trying to use only the email for now to make it simple (No Facebook, Google etc, I just want a User to sign up with an email and log in with an email)
I decided to give it a try via the django example app included in the repository but I have some issues...

First, there were several errors about missing settings. I think you must have a couple of settings defined in your local file "local_settings.py" and since it is not in the repository, some of the settings are missing. Could you give us an example of the "local_settings.py" file to see what settings need to be setup?

After I resolved the missing settings errors, I went to this page to register an account with an email address: http://localhost:8051/signup-email/
It worked and I was logged in.

Then I had a hard time logging out and I finally added a view on the views.py file. from django.contrib.auth import views as auth_views
url(r'^logout/$', auth_views.logout, name='auth_logout'),``

Now, when I want to log in with the email I used to register, it creates a new account instead of logging me in, why ? http://localhost:8051/login/email/

Thanks

@YAmikep my local_settings.py is only used to define application keys and secrets and email server credentials (only needed when email confirmation pipeline is enabled) and that's all.

How does your /signup-email/ view work? Is it related to python-social-auth in some way? If it only creates a User instance, then it won't work with python-social-auth.

My assumption was that any mention of emails with urls/views in the example were to do with triggering the required email pipeline when someone logged in with a social account that doesn't return with it an email address.
