How to Hash Django user password in Django Rest Framework?

You could also use a field validation function for the password field by adding a validate_password method to your serializer and make it return the hash.

from rest_framework.serializers import ModelSerializer
from django.contrib.auth.hashers import make_password


class UserSerializer(ModelSerializer):
    class Meta:
        model = backend.models.User
        fields = ('username', 'email', 'password',)

    validate_password = make_password

You can overwrite the perform_create method in CreateAPIView

from rest_framework.generics import CreateAPIView

class SignUpView(CreateAPIView):
    serializer_class = SignUpSerializers

    def perform_create(self, serializer):
        instance = serializer.save()
        instance.set_password(instance.password)
        instance.save()

You can try it in this way

from django.contrib.auth.hashers import make_password

user = User.objects.create(
       email=validated_data['email'],
       username=validated_data['username'],
       password = make_password(validated_data['password'])
)
