Django rest auth email instead of username

Following setting worked:

#This is required otherwise it asks for email serverEMAIL_BACKEND = 'django.core.mail.backends.console.EmailBackend'# ACCOUNT_EMAIL_REQUIRED = True# AUTHENTICATION_METHOD = 'EMAIL'# ACCOUNT_EMAIL_VERIFICATION = 'optional'ACCOUNT_AUTHENTICATION_METHOD = 'email'ACCOUNT_EMAIL_REQUIRED = True   ACCOUNT_USERNAME_REQUIRED = False#Following is added to enable registration with email instead of usernameAUTHENTICATION_BACKENDS = ( # Needed to login by username in Django admin, regardless of `allauth` "django.contrib.auth.backends.ModelBackend", # `allauth` specific authentication methods, such as login by e-mail "allauth.account.auth_backends.AuthenticationBackend",)

I'm using this package too, and by call this config it worked for me:

ACCOUNT_AUTHENTICATION_METHOD = 'email'

Be careful about this config, this config belongs to django-allauth, see this:

class AuthenticationMethod:    USERNAME = 'username'    EMAIL = 'email'    USERNAME_EMAIL = 'username_email'

The above class is the settings which is in allauth, so you should write 'EMAIL' in lower case.
