Authentication and Registration in Django Rest Framework
Project description
Dj-Rest-Auth
Drop-in API endpoints for handling authentication securely in Django Rest Framework. Works especially well with SPAs (e.g React, Vue, Angular), and Mobile applications.
Requirements
- Django 2 or 3.
- Python 3
Quick Setup
Install package
pip install dj-rest-auth
Add dj_rest_auth
app to INSTALLED_APPS in your django settings.py:
INSTALLED_APPS = (
...,
'rest_framework',
'rest_framework.authtoken',
...,
'dj_rest_auth'
)
Add URL patterns
urlpatterns = [
url(r'^dj-rest-auth/', include('dj_rest_auth.urls'))
]
(Optional) Use Http-Only cookies
REST_USE_JWT = True
JWT_AUTH_COOKIE = 'jwt-auth'
Testing
To run the tests within a virtualenv, run python runtests.py
from the repository directory.
The easiest way to run test coverage is with coverage
,
which runs the tests against all supported Django installs. To run the test coverage
within a virtualenv, run coverage run ./runtests.py
from the repository directory then run coverage report
.
