authenticate() returns none

Using Django Forms & APIs

i have created a custom user as below:

class CustomUserManager(BaseUserManager):
    def create_user(self, phone_number, password=None):
        if not phone_number:
            raise ValueError('وارد کردن تلفن همراه ضروری می‌باشد.')
        user = self.model(phone_number=phone_number)
        user.set_password(password)
        user.save(using=self._db)
        return user

    def create_superuser(self, phone_number, password):
        user = self.model(phone_number=phone_number)
        user.set_password(password)
        user.is_active = True
        user.is_staff = True
        user.is_superuser = True
        user.save(using=self._db)
        return user       


class CustomUser(AbstractBaseUser, PermissionsMixin):
    username = None
    name = models.CharField(max_length=30, blank=True, null=True)
    phone_regex = RegexValidator(regex=r'^09\d{9}$', message="شماره تلفن را به صورت ۰۹********* وارد کنید.")
    phone_number = models.CharField(max_length=11, validators=[phone_regex], unique=True)
    is_staff = models.BooleanField(default=False)

    USERNAME_FIELD = 'phone_number'

    objects = CustomUserManager()


    def __str__(self):
        return self.phone_number

and a user form as below too

class UserSignupForm(forms.Form):
    def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
        super(UserSignupForm, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs)
        self.fields['phone_number'].label = "شماره تلفن"
        self.fields['phone_number'].widget.attrs['class'] = 'form-control input-bg-white l-field'
        self.fields['password'].label = "رمز عبور"
        self.fields['password'].widget.attrs['class'] = 'form-control input-bg-white l-field'
        self.fields['password'].widget.attrs['id'] = 'login-signup-pass'


    def clean_phone_number(self):
        phone_number = self.cleaned_data['phone_number']
        if CustomUser.objects.filter(phone_number=phone_number).exists():
            raise forms.ValidationError("این شماره تلفن قبلا در سایت ثبت شده است.", code="already-exist")
    
        return phone_number

    phone_number = forms.CharField(
        widget=forms.TextInput(attrs={'placeholder': "09123456789"}),
        validators=[RegexValidator(r'^09\d{9}$', message="شماره تلفن وارد شده معتبر نمی‌باشد.")]
    )
    password = forms.CharField(widget=forms.PasswordInput)

    class Meta:
        model = CustomUser
        fields = ['phone_number', 'password']

my view:

if request.method == 'POST':
        user_signup_form = UserSignupForm(request.POST)
        repairman_signup_form = RepairmanSignupForm(request.POST)
        if user_signup_form.is_valid() and repairman_signup_form.is_valid():
            form_data = user_signup_form.cleaned_data
            repairman = CustomUser(phone_number=form_data['phone_number'], password=form_data['password'])
            repairman.save()
            repairman.set_password(repairman.password)

            repairman_profile = repairman_signup_form.save(commit=False)

            # Set One to One relationship between UserForm and UserProfileInfoForm
            repairman_profile.user = repairman
            if 'profile_photo' in request.FILES:
                repairman_profile.profile_photo = request.FILES['profile_photo']

            repairman_profile.save()
            phone_number=request.POST['phone_number']
            password=request.POST['password']
            print(phone_number, password)
            new_repairman = authenticate(phone_number=phone_number, password=password)
            print(new_repairman)
            if new_repairman:
                login(request, new_repairman)
            # registered = True
            return redirect('/profile')

now when i want to authenticate the user after signup, the authenticate() returns None.
what is the problem?

From the docs for authenticate:

It takes credentials as keyword arguments, username and password for the default case, …

Are you using a custom authentication backend? If so, please post it here. Otherwise, the parameters names you use in the call to authenticate must be username and password.

i am not using custom authentication backend. i did pass the username like below but it didn’t work again. but it works for my staff and super user (not normal users).

new_repairman = authenticate(username=phone_number, password=password)

thanks to you my problem solved.
and another issue was that i didn’t hash the password in view.
