How to Hash Django user password in Django Rest Framework?
You can try it in this way
from django.contrib.auth.hashers import make_passworduser = User.objects.create( email=validated_data['email'], username=validated_data['username'], password = make_password(validated_data['password']))
You can overwrite the perform_create method in CreateAPIView
from rest_framework.generics import CreateAPIViewclass SignUpView(CreateAPIView): serializer_class = SignUpSerializers def perform_create(self, serializer): instance = serializer.save() instance.set_password(instance.password) instance.save()
You could also use a field validation function for the password field by adding a validate_password method to your serializer and make it return the hash.
from rest_framework.serializers import ModelSerializerfrom django.contrib.auth.hashers import make_passwordclass UserSerializer(ModelSerializer): class Meta: model = backend.models.User fields = ('username', 'email', 'password',) validate_password = make_password
