django hash password when create user from shell

Question

I am using this example to create a custom User model. I want to test this through django shell.

When I create a user from django shell using MyUser.objects.create(email='[email protected]', data_of_birth=datetime.date.today(), password='somepassword'), the password doesn't get hashed and is stored in the database as plaintext.

But if I create a user through django admin portal, it gets stored as a hash.

What do I need to do so that it gets stored as hash even through shell? Do I need to implement some function of my own?

Django version 1.7.3

staff = Staff() staff.username = username staff.set_password(password) here staff is inherited model from USER , when user enter password you just give to the set_password , django automaticaly converted into hasble pwd — django-renjith

Use User.set_password():

user = MyUser(email='[email protected]'), ...)
user.set_password('somepassword')
user.save()
