Django Projekt Management - django

Question

im currently facing the problem that i want to call a view from another app (accounts app which holds the user model) within my main app (a blog app).
this is the error i get:
django.core.exceptions.FieldError: Unknown field(s) (username) specified for User
urls.py
...
from quickblog import views as core_views
from accounts import views as views_accounts
...
url(r'^myaccount/$', views_accounts.view_profile, name='myaccount'),
views.py (accounts app):
from django.shortcuts import render, redirect
from django.urls import reverse
from accounts.forms import (
RegistrationForm,
EditProfileForm
)
from django.contrib.auth.models import User
from django.contrib.auth.forms import PasswordChangeForm
from django.contrib.auth import update_session_auth_hash
def register(request):
if request.method == 'POST':
form = RegistrationForm(request.POST)
if form.is_valid():
form.save()
return redirect(reverse('accounts:home'))
else:
form = RegistrationForm()
args = {'form': form}
return render(request, 'reg_form.html', args)
def view_profile(request, pk=None):
if pk:
user = User.objects.get(pk=pk)
else:
user = request.user
args = {'user': user}
return render(request, 'profile.html', args)
def edit_profile(request):
if request.method == 'POST':
form = EditProfileForm(request.POST, instance=request.user)
if form.is_valid():
form.save()
return redirect(reverse('accounts:view_profile'))
else:
form = EditProfileForm(instance=request.user)
args = {'form': form}
return render(request, 'edit_profile.html', args)
def change_password(request):
if request.method == 'POST':
form = PasswordChangeForm(data=request.POST, user=request.user)
if form.is_valid():
form.save()
update_session_auth_hash(request, form.user)
return redirect(reverse('accounts:view_profile'))
else:
return redirect(reverse('accounts:change_password'))
else:
form = PasswordChangeForm(user=request.user)
args = {'form': form}
return render(request, 'change_password.html', args)
profile.html:
{% extends 'quickblog/base.html' %}
{% block head %}
<title>Profile</title>
{% endblock %}
{% block body %}
<div class="container">
<h1>Profile</h1>
<p>Username: {{ user }}</p>
<p>Bio: {{ user.bio }}</p>
<p>Avatar: {{ user.avatar }}</p>
{% if user.avatar.image %}
<img src="{{ user.avatar.image.url }}" width="250">
{% endif %}
</div>
{% endblock %}
This is my first django app, is there maybe anything i need to know about linking two apps within one project?
thanks

Answer 1

found the error at forms.py
class RegistrationForm(UserCreationForm):
user = forms.CharField(required=True)
class Meta:
model = User
fields = (
'username', < has to be user
'password1',
'password2',
)
anyways, thanks everybody :)
