I think you have a few errors in your code.
In views.py you write:
User.objects.create_user(
serialized.save()
)
serialized.save() is probably calling User.objects.create - which you
shouldn't do. If you want to create a user the way you are doing you will
need to override the default create_user method on the User model. Add
support for handling the password1 and password2 fields and then add
support for the first_name and last_name fields.
Then you can override the create method on the serializer class like this:
def create(self, validated_data):
"""
Override default implementation of the create method. Make sure
user gets password.
:param validated_data: the validated data sent to the method
:return: the newly created user if successful
"""
if self.is_valid(True):
return User.create_user(validated_data.get("email"),
validated_data.get("password"),
validated_data.get("first_name"),
validated_data.get("last_name"))
