How can I implement custom authentication in Flask-Security?

To implement custom authentication in Flask-Security, you can create a custom user model and override the default authentication methods.

What are the steps to create a custom user model?

First, define your user model by extending the UserMixin class, then set up your database and configure Flask-Security.

Can you give me an example of a custom user model?

Sure! Here's a simple example:

from flask_security import UserMixin

class CustomUser(UserMixin):
    id = db.Column(db.Integer, primary_key=True)
    email = db.Column(db.String(255), unique=True)
    password = db.Column(db.String(255))
    # Add other fields as needed

How do I link this model with Flask-Security?

You need to set the user model in your Flask-Security configuration using SECURITY_USER_ID and SECURITY_USER_MODEL.
