Project description

PyPI Code Coverage Test Checked with mypy Checked with pyright Docstring

Modern Django REST Framework authentication toolkit with JWT cookies, social login, MFA, and comprehensive user management.

Built as a next-generation alternative to existing DRF authentication packages, DRF Auth Kit provides a complete authentication solution with modern developer experience, inspired by dj-rest-auth but enhanced with full type safety, automatic OpenAPI schema generation, and comprehensive MFA support inspired by django-trench.

Features

  • Multiple Authentication Types: JWT (default), DRF Token, or Custom

  • Cookie-Based Security: HTTP-only cookies

  • Complete User Management: Registration, password reset, email verification

  • Multi-Factor Authentication: Support multiple MFAs with backup codes

  • Social Authentication: Django Allauth integration with 50+ providers, support for both OAuth2 and OpenID connect.

  • Internationalization: Built-in support for 57 languages including English, Spanish, French, German, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Vietnamese, and more

  • Full Type Safety: Complete type hints with mypy and pyright

  • OpenAPI Integration: Auto-generated API documentation with DRF Spectacular

  • Flexible Configuration: Customizable serializers, views, and authentication backends

Quick Start

  1. Add to your Django settings:

INSTALLED_APPS = [
    # ... your apps
    'rest_framework',
    'allauth',  # Required for social auth
    'allauth.account',  # Required for social auth
    # 'allauth.socialaccount',  # For social login
    # 'allauth.socialaccount.providers.google',  # For Google login
    'auth_kit',
    # 'auth_kit.social',  # For social authentication
    # 'auth_kit.mfa',  # For MFA support
]

REST_FRAMEWORK = {
    'DEFAULT_AUTHENTICATION_CLASSES': [
        'auth_kit.authentication.JWTCookieAuthentication',
    ],
}

# Override only if needed:
# AUTH_KIT = {
#     'USE_MFA': True,  # Enable MFA
# }

# Google OAuth2 settings (for social login)
# SOCIALACCOUNT_PROVIDERS = {
#     'google': {
#         'SCOPE': ['profile', 'email'],
#         'AUTH_PARAMS': {'access_type': 'online'},
#         'OAUTH_PKCE_ENABLED': True,
#         'APP': {
#             'client_id': 'your-google-client-id',
#             'secret': 'your-google-client-secret',
#         }
#     }
# }
  1. Include Auth Kit URLs:

from django.urls import path, include

urlpatterns = [
    path('api/auth/', include('auth_kit.urls')),
    # path('api/auth/social/', include('auth_kit.social.urls')),  # For social auth
    # ... your other URLs
]
  1. Run migrations (only needed if using MFA):

python manage.py migrate
