Django rest framework user registration?

Question

I am following this tutorial but facing these problems I can\'t fix:

1. Upon registering user, I can not log in with that user to the api because the password is

Answer 1

I tried the accepted answer in DRF 3.0.2 and it didn't work. The password was not being hashed.

Instead, override the create method in your model serializer

    def create(self, validated_data):
        user = User(email=validated_data['email'], username=validated_data['username'])
        user.set_password(validated_data['password'])
        user.save()
        return user

This hashes the password when you create a user using the rest framework, not post_save
