Django Custom Auth User - Improved Fork

This is a fork of https://github.com/anthon-alindada/django_custom_auth_user which fixes several bugs. Unfortunately the original repo (the one I forked from) is no longer maintained by the developer, even though it has a couple of critical bugs that render that repo unusable. In particular:

• In the original repo, the token expires 24 hours after the Django system gets restarted. Any tokens created after that will already be expired!
• In the original repo, the token_required decorator did not work on class-based view methods

Both of these issues have been fixed in this fork.

Here is the original README:
