How to join a Django group by invite?

Question

Django

I'm doing it on a user community site. At the same time, I inherit from standard groups, with the addition of the group creator field. How can I make it possible to join the group only by invitation of the administrator?

Answer 1

I would have an Invite model with a text field to store the unique identifier of the invite, a ForeignKey for the group and, if necessary, a ForeignKey for the User to whom the invite is intended. I would also make a view to enter the invite ID. If the identifier is entered correctly, the user is added to the group, and the invite is either deleted or marked as used.
