Blog API with Django Rest Framework 25 of 33 - User API Setup

** Blog API with Django Rest Framework ** is a project to build a RESTful API service for the blog we created in Advancing the Blog and Try Django 1.9.

RESTful API services allow our applications to connect with other applications using JSON-formatted data. An strong API can enhance our applications ability to provide value to other services and end users. This type of API is very common in modern web application development.

Generally the topics will include:
- Django Project Setup
- Class Based Views (& some Function Based Views)
- Models, Model Forms, Forms, Form Validation
- Integrate Bootstrap front-end framework.
- Django Registration Redux for Authentication/Registration
- And More

Your videos are really good. Can you do a video on authentication with ldap in django rest framework?

Why we shouldn't do:

from django.contrib.auth.models import User

to get a user?
or

from django.conf import settings

and then make use of

settings.AUTH_USER_MODEL
