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',
#         }
#     }
# }

2. 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
]

3. Run migrations (only needed if using MFA):
