Task: Setup Authentication

[DeeMcCart]

EPIC: #1

As a user I can register -signin - sign in-out so that I can operate with a user profile

Assumptions or Pre-Requisites:

• Base repo has been configured
• AllAuth has been installed (Assumption: there will be separate user stories specifically relating to how this functionality is applied/used by the various roles, however all rely on this initial setup as a core

Acceptance Criteria: (Must be completed before task is moved to 'Done')

• [x] User can register successfuly
• [x] User is required to enter an appropriate password configuration (min length, etc)
• [x] User receives appropriate notifications of problems with registration password (doesn't meet criteria, 2 passwords don't match etc)
• [ ] Preference is that an email is NOT mandatory for profile creation (later on, will be required to give an email if want to create an online order)
• [ ] If a user does supply an email address on registration, they should be offered a checkbox 'send newsletter'. This checkbox should supply an appropriate popup alerting the user to privacy policy (and anything else required by GDPR)
• [ ] User can sign in after creating a profile
• [ ] If a user is attempting to signin and enters incorrect credentials then appropriate action should be taken....

Tasks

• [x] Install AllAuth
• [x] Add options to navbar
• [x] Amend/update the Allauth screens so they have a consistent look and feel
• [ ] Ensure connected to Toast messaging

Before changing task status to 'Review' or 'Done' please provide comment (and screenprints if appropriate) as documentary evidence of task completion

26/01/24: Installed & uninstalled several times as wanted to install crispy_bootstrap5; this incremented the installed Python from 3.9.7 to 4.2.9; and allauth failed on handshake... conclusion after a bit of back-and-forth was to accept later installation versions. Some rework on each re/install. However now have a reasonably good look and feel. re Daisy McGurr (?) Utube Django series. Resulting styled allauth forms below. The remaining forms could do with a bit more work, and I'd like to resequence some of the fields (e.g. registration requires password to be entered twice which is a total waste, also would like people to be able to enter their phone# at this point if at all possible)

Newsletter signup: (not working exactly as expected): <- shouldnt be mandatory ie user doesnt need to check this box to continue
