drf-jwt

pip install .

let jwt do the authentification:

add 'drf_jwt.authentication.JSONWebTokenAuthentication' in authentication classes:

'DEFAULT_AUTHENTICATION_CLASSES': [
    'drf_jwt.authentication.JSONWebTokenAuthentication',
]

make endpoints to login, get the jwt:

from drf_jwt.controllers import Auth

urlpatterns = [
    path('api/login', Auth.as_view()),
]

suport GET and POST

POST:

login will be the username of the "authenticate" function

return a JWT token, given the fact that you are authenticate

so, one could do a Basic Authentication to the GET endpoints to receve a JWT
