I'm using jwt-rest-framework for user authentication, and I would like to return a user_id
with the token. There are some examples on how to do it when using Django-rest-framework
, so according to this example I've tried to override ObtainJSONWenToken
jwt view and did the same thing
from rest_framework.authtoken.models import Token
from rest_framework.response import Response
from rest_framework_jwt.views import ObtainJSONWebToken
# Create your views here.
class CustomObtainJSONWebToken(ObtainJSONWebToken):
"""
Return user id with token
"""
def post(self, request, *args, **kwargs):
response = super(CustomObtainJSONWebToken, self).post(request, *args, **kwargs)
token = Token.objects.get(key=response.data['token'])
return Response({'token': token.key, 'id': token.user_id})
But the Traceback is pointing out to the token
it self:
Traceback:

The question is what is the proper way of returning user_id
with the token, how do I override this view so I can achieve this?
