Implementing Ajax requests / response with django-allauth
django, django-allauth, django-authentication, django-forms, django-views
Solution
It depends a bit on what you mean by ajax. If you just want to have a popup-style login/signup box on every page, then you can simply add the form to your base template and show it dynamically using Javascript in a popup box or so. If you keep the form action url to the original `allauth` urls then this will already give the feel of an ajax signin. You could also tweak things by using `$.ajax` or `$.post` to post to the original `allauth` views.
Something like the above is done on http://officecheese.com/ -- this is an `allauth` based site, though I am not affiliated with it.
If by ajax you mean that all authentication related views should be displayed via ajax, without causing a new document reload, then I am afraid you are a little bit out of luck. This simply is problematic for scenario's where e-mail verification, or OAuth handshakes are involed, as here you are typically navigating to a new URL from your mailbox, or redirecting to Twitter and so on.
Problem
I am using django-allauth for one of my project. I would like to implement login/signup process via ajax. I would like to have customized signup form. I was going through their signupmixin and signup form. Sounds like I can write custom views for each action and map it to the url config. I am not sure what is the best way to do this. Thank you so much for any help or advice on this.
