Django IntegrityError email is not unique

Question

I am working on my Checkout view with regular/guest user but getting hard time to come around the integrity error. Idea is to let guest users register with email only to checkou

Answer 1

The clean_ methods of a Form are used to perform validation relative to single field. If you need validation with access to multiple fields, use the clean method. Check the documentation on form validation for a thorough explanation.

That would give:

class GuestCheckoutForm(forms.Form):
    email = forms.EmailField()
    email2 = forms.EmailField(label='Verify Email')

    def clean_email(self):
        email = self.cleaned_data["email"]
        if User.objects.filter(email=email).exists():
            raise forms.ValidationError("Please confirm emails addresses are the same.")
        return email

    def clean(self):
        cleaned_data = super(GuestCheckoutForm, self).clean()
        email = cleaned_data.get('email')
        email2 = cleaned_data.get('email2')

        if email and email2 and email != email2:
            self.add_error('email2', forms.ValidationError('Please confirm emails addresses are the same.'))

EDIT: I believe I found out why you got an IntegrityError: You are validation that no User with the given email is in the database, you should also be validating that no other UserCheckout with the given email is in the database. Replace if User.objects.filter(email=email).exists(): by if User.objects.filter(email=email).exists() or UserCheckout.objects.filter(email=email).exists():
