Plans? #12

Open danielfarrell opened 8 years ago

danielfarrell commented 8 years ago

I wanted to see what the plans are for the library? I've written the following add-ons:

  1. Middleware to auth any connection sending JWT in authorization header
  2. After login signal hook to create JWT and store it in session
  3. Template tag to output your JWT from your session

I wanted to see if any/all of those are of interest to you? If so, I'll make a PR(or multiple if you want them split up). If not, no big deal, I'll make a different library.

Rational here, we often have projects where just a part of the site/application is JS heavy and the rest is more of a traditional Django app. In that scenario, using the normal login and having a JWT that can be used from there is a great workflow.

@danielfarrell atm no active plans for anything else, but with people stepping up to help develop and maintain I'm up for anything. Would love to see pull requests for these things so we can discuss further. Thanks!

Would love to see these features. Any update @danielfarrell ?

danielfarrell commented 8 years ago

Thanks for the reminder @jameswyse, I'll get that stuff split out into PRs for this.

danielfarrell commented 8 years ago

The work I've done is in PR #16 if anyone is interested.

@jpadilla do you intend to maintain the project? In the meantime, I created a fork on https://github.com/webstack/django-jwt-auth with many changes.
