Ninja JWT
Abstract
Ninja JWT is a JSON Web Token (JWT) plugin for Django-Ninja. This library is a fork of Simple JWT by Jazzband, a widely-used JWT plugin for the Django REST Framework.
Notice
This library does not address any issues present in the original SIMPLE JWT. It only adds support for Django-Ninja and removes dependencies on DRF. Subsequent updates from SIMPLE JWT will be reflected here over time.
For full documentation, visit this page.
Requirements
- Python >= 3.6
- Django >= 2.1
- Django-Ninja >= 0.16.1
- Django-Ninja-Extra >= 0.14.2
Example
Checkout this sample project: https://github.com/eadwinCode/bookstoreapi
Installation
Ninja JWT can be installed with pip:
pip install django-ninja-jwt
You also need to register the NinjaJWTDefaultController controller to your Django-Ninja API:
from ninja_jwt.controller import NinjaJWTDefaultController
from ninja_extra import NinjaExtraAPI
api = NinjaExtraAPI()
api.register_controllers(NinjaJWTDefaultController)
The NinjaJWTDefaultController includes three routes: obtain_token, refresh_token, and verify_token.
It combines two subclasses, TokenVerificationController and TokenObtainPairController.
If you want to customize these routes, you can inherit from these controllers and modify their implementation:
from ninja_extra import api_controller
from ninja_jwt.controller import TokenObtainPairController
@api_controller('token', tags=['Auth'])
class MyCustomController(TokenObtainPairController):
"""obtain_token and refresh_token only"""
...
api.register_controllers(MyCustomController)
To use localizations/translations, add ninja_jwt to your INSTALLED_APPS:
INSTALLED_APPS = [
...
'ninja_jwt',
...
]
Using Ninja Router
If you prefer not to follow the NinjaExtra methodology,
refer to this documentation
on how to use Ninja-JWT with Django-Ninja Router.
Usage
To verify that Ninja JWT is working, you can use curl to issue a couple of test requests:
curl \
-X POST \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{"username": "davidattenborough", "password": "boatymcboatface"}' \
http://localhost:8000/api/token/pair
...
{
"access":"eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9.eyJ1c2VyX3BrIjoxLCJ0b2tlbl90eXBlIjoiYWNjZXNzIiwiY29sZF9zdHVmZiI6IuKYgyIsImV4cCI6MTIzNDU2LCJqdGkiOiJmZDJmOWQ1ZTFhN2M0MmU4OTQ5MzVlMzYyYmNhOGJjYSJ9.NHlztMGER7UADHZJlxNG0WSi22a2KaYSfd1S-AuT7lU",
"refresh":"eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9.eyJ1c2VyX3BrIjoxLCJ0b2tlbl90eXBlIjoicmVmcmVzaCIsImNvbGRfc3R1ZmYiOiLimIMiLCJleHAiOjIzNDU2NywianRpIjoiZGUxMmY0ZTY3MDY4NDI3ODg5ZjE1YWMyNzcwZGEwNTEifQ.aEoAYkSJjoWH1boshQAaTkf8G3yn0kapko6HFRt7Rh4"
}
You can use the returned access token to prove authentication for a protected view:
curl \
-H "Authorization: Bearer eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9.eyJ1c2VyX3BrIjoxLCJ0b2tlbl90eXBlIjoiYWNjZXNzIiwiY29sZF9zdHVmZiI6IuKYgyIsImV4cCI6MTIzNDU2LCJqdGkiOiJmZDJmOWQ1ZTFhN2M0MmU4OTQ5MzVlMzYyYmNhOGJjYSJ9.NHlztMGER7UADHZJlxNG0WSi22a2KaYSfd1S-AuT7lU" \
http://localhost:8000/api/some-protected-view/
When this short-lived access token expires, you can use the longer-lived refresh token to obtain another access token:
curl \
-X POST \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{"refresh":"eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9.eyJ1c2VyX3BrIjoxLCJ0b2tlbl90eXBlIjoicmVmcmVzaCIsImNvbGRfc3R1ZmYiOiLimIMiLCJleHAiOjIzNDU2NywianRpIjoiZGUxMmY0ZTY3MDY4NDI3ODg5ZjE1YWMyNzcwZGEwNTEifQ.aEoAYkSJjoWH1boshQAaTkf8G3yn0kapko6HFRt7Rh4"}' \
http://localhost:8000/api/token/refresh
...
{"access":"eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9.eyJ1c2VyX3BrIjoxLCJ0b2tlbl90eXBlIjoiYWNjZXNzIiwiY29sZF9zdHVmZiI6IuKYgyIsImV4cCI6MTIzNTY3LCJqdGkiOiJjNzE4ZTVkNjgzZWQ0NTQyYTU0NWJkM2VmMGI0ZGQ0ZSJ9.ekxRxgb9OKmHkfy-zs1Ro_xs1eMLXiR17dIDBVxeT-w"}
