drf-body-token 0.1.0

Install

pip3 install drf-body-token

DRF Body Token only supports Python 3.5+.

Usage

Add BodyTokenAuthentication to authentication_classes atrribute of your viewset. Example:

from drf_body_token.authentication import BodyTokenAuthentication

class MyAwesomeViewSet(GenericViewSet):
    authentication_classes = (TokenAuthentication, BodyTokenAuthentication)

You can also add it to REST_FRAMEWORK['DEFAULT_AUTHENTICATION_CLASSES'] settings, to make it available for every viewset.

By default, BodyTokenAuthentication looks for access_token field in request’s body. That body can be, for example:

{
    "name": "Cuckoo",
    "type": "bird",
    "access_token": "Vừng ơi mở ra"
}

If you want it to look for another field, add this to your settings.py file:

DRF_BODY_TOKEN_FIELD = 'your_field'
