ImportError cannot import name user

Question

In Django I created a new model:

from django.db import models
from django.contrib.auth import user

class Workers(models.Model):
    user = models.OneToOneField(User, primary_key=True)
        work_group = models.CharField(max_length=20)
        card_num = models.IntegerField()
    def __unicode__(self):
            return self.user

But it doesn't work: ImportError: cannot import name user

How to fix it?

So, I want to create a new table "workers" in db, which has a OneToOne relationship with table "auth_user". Thanks.

Hello @kartik,

You missed the models - and user is capitalized in:

from django.contrib.auth.models import User

If you use a custom user model you should use:

from django.contrib.auth import get_user_model
User = get_user_model()

Hope it helps!!
Thank You!
