Django comes with a user
authentication system. It handles user
accounts, groups, permissions and
cookie-based user sessions. This
document explains how things work.
If you have the django.contrib.admin in your INSTALLED_APPS, you can visit: example.com/path-to-admin/password_change/ which will have a form to confirm your old password and enter the new password twice.
You can also just use the django.contrib.auth.views.password_change view in your URLconf. It uses a default form and template; supplying your own is optional.
Once the url pattern is added as shown in Ciro Santilli's answer, a quick way to allow users to change passwords is to give them "staff access" for the admin functions. If you don't add them to any groups or give them special permissions, they can still change their password by going to the example.com/admin page. The staff access lets them go to the page even if it is blank; in the upper right corner they can click "change password" and use the admin funtionality.
This is the command i used, just in case you are having problem in that throw AttributeError: Manager isn't available; 'auth.User' has been swapped for 'users.User'.
python manage.py shell -c "from django.contrib.auth import get_user_model;
User = get_user_model();
u = User.objects.get(username='admin');
u.set_password('password123');
u.save()"
Its without need to go to shell enter passwd and reenter passwd
python manage.py changepassword <username>
or
/manage.py changepassword <username>
Using shell
python manage.py shell
from django.contrib.auth.models import User
users=User.objects.filter(email='<user_email>')
#you can user username or etc to get users query set
#you can also use get method to get users
user=users[0]
user.set_password('__enter passwd__')
user.save()
exit()
I used this technique for the custom user model which is derived from the AbstractUser model. I am sorry if I technically misspelled the class and subclass, but the technique worked well.
Authentication is the one way and after that reset the password
from django.contrib.auth import authenticate
user = authenticate(username='username',password='passwd')
try:
if user is not None:
user.set_password('new password')
else:
print('user is not exist')
except:
print("do something here")
