Django authentication via Google, Deezer, and Spotify by Nikita Kholin

In this tutorial we will add an ability to sign up, sign in via Google, Deezer, and Spotify, view a success screen, and sign out afterward. Our project is going to be about music releases notifications.

I’ve already created a Django project with a landing page in a previous tutorial.

How will we do that?

We’re going to use a social-app-django library. It supports a huge number of auth providers. They are also called “Backends” in the library. As you could guess, we will need Google, Deezer, and Spotify.

To install the library please follow an official installation guide.

Adding social-app-django to your Django project

First of all, you need to add the library to our INSTALLED_APPS in your project’s settings.py

INSTALLED_APPS = [
    'django.contrib.admin',
    'django.contrib.auth',
    'django.contrib.contenttypes',
    'django.contrib.sessions',
    'django.contrib.messages',
    'django.contrib.staticfiles',
    # ...
    'social_django',
    # ...
    'pages',
]

After that, migrate your database by running

python3 manage.py migrate

Then add
