Set username as Keycloak Username (instead of Keycloak ID)

[srinathganesh1]

This is what my keycloak User Screen looks like

BUT when I log within django,

• user.email is proper (whats present in keycloak)
• user.username is getting set as ID from keycloak.

Is there a way to retain djnago username as keycloak username?

Why does the plugin not use preferred_username that is being returned by Keycloak?

[nirav3650]

I get user id of the authenticated keycloak user in Django instead of username when I use request.user.username

Does preferred username give us the username of the user specified in keycloak of that user?

prefered_username of oauth does return username, but this plugin does not seem to be reading it

Update: I locally changed it to preferred_username and did python3 setup.py install and logged in. Things seems to work fine and keycloak Username is getting populated to user.username

Still awaiting more testing, but basic run looks good
