I am a nodejs developer but currently migrating to django(being a python lover). I am trying to implement OAuth2 in Django Rest Framework but I don't know how to start.
In nodejs, there is passportjs library which is well maintained, and it's got stratigies for every possible authentication type. What about django rest framework ? User name/password auth seems straightforward but oauth2 is not well covered.
In DRF docs here, It mentions two libraries for oauth. The first is django-oauth-toolkit which is well maintained but after going through docs, I didn't seem to understand much, it doesn't even talk about googl/facebook oauth. I am not sure what it is used for, anyway. The second one is django-rest-framework-social-oauth2 which seems to be straightforward but it's not been touched for over a year, it's probably not maintained any more.
So, How do you guys do oauth2 in your DRF projects ?
I hope you have solved this already. You can check my repo: It offers a simple way of authenticating against major ouath2 vendors. Here it is https://github.com/wagnerdelima/drf-social-oauth2.
You can also check my other repo https://github.com/wagnerdelima/facebook_setup. It integrates https://github.com/wagnerdelima/drf-social-oauth2 as an example to make it easy for newcomers.
