I've created rest APIs using Django-rest-auth, in login, it's returning key and some user info, But I need to add some status like success and message and some other things. Is there any way to override view of django-rest-auth for login?
class TokenSerializer(serializers.ModelSerializer):
user = UserSerializer(many=False, read_only=True) # this is add by myself.
device = DeviceSerializer(many=True, read_only=True)
class Meta:
model = TokenModel
fields = ('key', 'user', 'device',)
Create a custom view class and use it
from rest_auth.views import LoginView
class CustomLoginView(LoginView):
def get_response(self):
orginal_response = super().get_response()
mydata = {"message": "some message", "status": "success"}
orginal_response.data.update(mydata)
return orginal_response
and change your urls.py
as
urlpatterns = [
url(r'custom/login/', CustomLoginView.as_view(), name='my_custom_login')
]
now you should use the endpoint /custom/login/
instead of /rest-auth/login
