Simple Key authentication for Django.Based on github.com/scoursen/django-apikey

Project description

Key authentication for django. Can be used with django-piston easily.

Based on https://github.com/scoursen/django-apikey.

Installation

pip install django-apikey

Configuration

Add ‘apikey’ to your settings.py:

INSTALLED_APPS = (
...
'apikey',
....
)

You can change the authorization header by setting the APIKEY_AUTHORIZATION_HEADER in settings.py:

To add api authentication with piston do thisin your handlers.

from apikey.auth import ApiKeyAuthentication
from piston.handler import BaseHandler
from piston.resource import Resource
from myapp.models import Item

class ItemHandler(BaseHandler):
    allowed = ('GET', )
    model = Item

    def read(self):
        return Item.objects.all()

handler = Resource(
    handler=ItemHandler, authentication=ApiKeyAuthentication())
