I am having trouble testing a relationship between two models (CustomUser and Profile) located in different apps. I'm hoping someone can identify where I am going wrong here:

Here is my profiles/models.py --- you can see my user field attempting to create a OneToOne with with my users/models.py:

from django.db import models



from core.models import TimeStampedModel



class Profile(TimeStampedModel):

    user = models.OneToOneField('users.CustomUser', on_delete=models.CASCADE)

    first_name      = models.CharField(max_length=30, blank=True)

    last_name       = models.CharField(max_length=30, blank=True)

    bio             = models.TextField(blank=True)

    image           = models.URLField(blank=True)



    def __str__(self):

         return self.user.username

Here is my users/models.py:

class CustomUser(AbstractBaseUser, PermissionsMixin, TimeStampedModel):

    username = models.CharField(db_index=True, max_length=255, unique=True)

    email = models.EmailField(db_index=True, unique=True)

    is_active = models.BooleanField(default=True)

    is_staff = models.BooleanField(default=False)

    is_provider = models.BooleanField(default=False)



    USERNAME_FIELD = 'email'

    REQUIRED_FIELDS = ['username']



    objects = CustomUserManager()



    def __str__(self):

        return self.email



    @property

    def token(self):

        return self._generate_jwt_token()



    def get_short_name(self):

        return self.username



    def _generate_jwt_token(self):

        dt = datetime.now() + timedelta(days=60)



        token = jwt.encode({

            'id': self.pk,

            'exp': int(dt.strftime('%s'))

        }, settings.SECRET_KEY, algorithm='HS256')



        return token.decode('utf-8')

So the idea is that when I create a new user, a profile is automatically created as well. To do this, I am using a post_save signal in my users app:

users/signals.py:

from django.db.models.signals import post_save

from django.dispatch import receiver



from conduit.apps.profiles.models import Profile



from .models import User



@receiver(post_save, sender=User)

def create_related_profile(sender, instance, created, *args, **kwargs):

    if instance and created:

        instance.profile = Profile.objects.create(user=instance)

And finally an update to my users/init.py file:

from django.apps import AppConfig





class UsersAppConfig(AppConfig):

    name = 'django.users'

    label = 'users'

    verbose_name = 'Users'



    def ready(self):

        import users.signals



default_app_config = 'django.users.UsersAppConfig'

That last update is something I am relatively unfamiliar with. I suspect this is where my problem is located.

I am able to resister a new user via an api call with no problem, however, when I test to see if a Profile object exists for that new user, I am left with the following error:

python manage.py shell



from users.models import CustomUser



u = CustomerUser.objects.last()



u

<CustomUser:testuser@gmail.com> --- everything works to this point



u.profile --- this is where it breaks down

I'm left with this error in shell:

users.models.CustomUser.profile.RelatedObjectDoesNotExist: CustomUser has no profile.

Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

I think your error is in your signal method:

from django.db.models.signals import post_save

from django.dispatch import receiver



from conduit.apps.profiles.models import Profile



from .models import User # you have CustomUser but you are calling User



@receiver(post_save, sender=User)

def create_related_profile(sender, instance, created, *args, **kwargs):

    if instance and created: # you should only have created because you want this happen only when it is created

        instance.profile = Profile.objects.create(user=instance)

Also, I see no need updating the users init.py.
