Django Rest Framework: How can I create endpoint for logging via Gmail (Google)?

I am trying to create API and I'm wondering how I can create an endpoint for authenticating via Gmail account. Seems like django-rest-auth supports only Facebook and Twitter.

Anyone could give me tips?

I am using Django rest auth in one of my projects and it does support Google sign-in. It supports all the social provider which django-allauth supports. Here is the list of the supported social provider by django-allauth and django-rest-auth

# social_auth_view.py

from rest_framework_jwt.authentication import JSONWebTokenAuthentication
from allauth.socialaccount.providers.google.views import GoogleOAuth2Adapter
from rest_auth.registration.views import SocialLoginView

class GoogleLogin(SocialLoginView):
    adapter_class = GoogleOAuth2Adapter

# urls.py
urlpatterns += [
    ...,
    url(r'^rest-auth/google/$', GoogleLogin.as_view(), name='google_login')
]

So, If you want to support any other social provider.

  1. Import adapter for your social provider from allauth.socialaccount.providers.
  2. Create new view as a subclass of rest_auth.registration.views.SocialLoginView.
  3. Add the adapter imported in step 1 in the view as adapter_class attribute.
  4. Import this view in urls.py
