from accounts.forms import UserLoginForm def login(request): if request.method == 'POST': form = UserLoginForm(request.POST) if form.is_valid(): # Do login process return redirect('dashboard') else: form = UserLoginForm() return render(request, 'login.html', {'form': form})
from accounts.forms import UserLoginForm def authenticate_user(username, password): form_data = { 'username': username, 'password': password } form = UserLoginForm(form_data) if form.is_valid(): return True # User is authenticated else: return False # User is not authenticatedIn this example, we import the UserLoginForm from the accounts.forms module. We define a function authenticate_user that takes in a username and password as parameters. We then create a dictionary with the form data, and initialize a UserLoginForm object with the dictionary. We check if the form data is valid using the is_valid method, and if it is, we return True, indicating that the user is authenticated. If the form data is not valid, we return False, indicating that the user is not authenticated. Package/library: Django
