Django Rest Framework Tutorial
This is the tutorial on Youtube https://youtu.be/PqkvRz1sLF8
If you add 'rest_framework.authtoken' to local apps and this configuration in settings.py
REST_FRAMEWORK = { "DEFAULT_AUTHENTICATION_CLASSES": [ "rest_framework.authentication.TokenAuthentication", "rest_framework.authentication.BasicAuthentication", "rest_framework.authentication.SessionAuthentication", ] }
"Token" will appear in the admin menue. You can now create a Token for a user and then "export MY_TOKEN={the just created token withour curly braces}"
If you then do:
http POST localhost:8000/books/ title="Your title" num_pages=222 'Authorization: Token '$MY_TOKEN
the book will be created
