How to create two kinds of users in a Django site?

Question

Django

I have a Django site, and a custom User model inherited from AbstractUser , but I need to make two types of users, a seller and a buyer. The buyer has nothing but to select a product and add to favorites, but the seller has the city where he lives, the product he sells, the type of product. How to create two different users on the site during registration and how to store it in the database

Answer 1

role=CharField(choices=...)

Answer 2

You can simply create two groups: seller and buyer. When registering, add the user to the appropriate group. Create/assign groups the permissions you want or use django-rules. Whether in views to check there are the necessary permissions.
