django allauth login & signup form on homepage

Question

I have been looking for a solution for some time now and I am not able to wrap my head around this. All I am trying to accomplish is to have the allauth login and signup for

Answer 1

First we take create a custom view using allauth's signup view

from allauth.accounts.views import SignupView
from allauth.accounts.forms import LoginForm


class CustomSignupView(SignupView):
    # here we add some context to the already existing context
    def get_context_data(self, **kwargs):
        # we get context data from original view
        context = super(CustomSignupView,
                        self).get_context_data(**kwargs)
        context['login_form'] = LoginForm() # add form to context
        return context

Validation errors will not be rendered here for login form, we then need to create a custom LoginView, but for now let's move on to the template

Toggle Forms 

  {% csrf_token %}
  {{ form.as_p }}
  

Add some javascript to toggle these. The actions point the forms in different directions. Normally we would use formsets for this but since All-auth's signup form is not a Form object this may be the quickest way to do it.

These all go in views.py of any app you choose, the tags go inside of a template defined in settings.py, TEMPLATE_DIRS or Dirs list in django1.8
