__init__() got an unexpected keyword argument 'user'

Question

i am using Django to create a user and an object when the user is created. But there is an error

__init__() got an unexpected keyword argument \'user\'<

Answer 1

I got the same error.

On my view I was overriding get_form_kwargs() like this:

class UserAccountView(FormView):
    form_class = UserAccountForm
    success_url = '/'
    template_name = 'user_account/user-account.html'

def get_form_kwargs(self):
    kwargs = super(UserAccountView, self).get_form_kwargs()
    kwargs.update({'user': self.request.user})
    return kwargs

But on my form I failed to override the init() method. Once I did it. Problem solved

class UserAccountForm(forms.Form):
    first_name = forms.CharField(label='Your first name', max_length=30)
    last_name = forms.CharField(label='Your last name', max_length=30)
    email = forms.EmailField(max_length=75)

    def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
        user = kwargs.pop('user')
        super(UserAccountForm, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs)
