Assign group while creating a signup code

[alexlopespereira]

I would like to assign a user to a group on the SignupCode admin view. So that when the user signs up, I check the group associated to a code and add the user to the corresponding group without the burden to do that manualy for a large number of users (more than 1000 users).

How could I do that?

I found a clever way to do that. I created a code pattern like this: my_group_name-0001
Then, in the after_signup method I do this:
code = SignupCode.objects.get(email=self.created_user.email).code
group_name = code.split('-')[0]
group = Group.objects.get(name=group_name)
group.user_set.add(self.created_user)

This way I didn't need to customize the SignupCode model nor the Admin view.

Anyway, it would be a nice to do it the right way (changing the Admin view an add a relationship to groups) project so that we do not depend on a code pattern to enable this feature. Consider adding this to the project.

I'd say the correct way is to listen to the signal signup_code_used which is emitted here:

django-user-accounts/account/models.py

Line 207 in 68bac73

signup_code_used.send(sender=result.__class__, signup_code_result=result)
