djblets.webapi.auth.views¶
Deprecated views for handling authentication.
These allow for logging a user in through an HTTP POST request supplying a username and password, and logging out through a POST or GET request.
This support is deprecated. Instead, your application should make use of
one of our authentication backends, such as
djblets.webapi.auth.backends.basic.WebAPIBasicAuthBackend.
- account_login(request, *args, **kwargs)¶
Log the user in through a provided login and password.
Rather than using this view, you should be authenticating using API auth backends instead.
- Parameters:
request (
HttpRequest) – The HTTP request from the client.- Returns:
A blank response if logging in succeeded, or a
LOGIN_FAILEDif it failed.- Return type:

- account_logout(request, *args, **kwargs)¶
Log the user out, and send an API response.
- Parameters:
request (
HttpRequest) – The HTTP request from the client.- Returns:
The API response indicating a successful logout.
- Return type:
