自定义Django休息框架身份验证响应{“详细信息”：“未提供身份验证凭据。”}

Question

I am using django 2.1 and python 3.6 and django rest framework 3.8.2 ... I am trying to find a way to customize the json response when authentication failed.

I am using a third party package Django OAuth Toolkit

The only way I could think of is writing a custom authentication class

{ "detail": "Authentication credentials were not provided." }

{ "Failure": "Authentication credentials were not provided. xyz etc" }

My attempt at overwriting the BaseAuthorizationView

views.py

from django.http import HttpResponse
from oauth2_provider.views.base import TokenView, BaseAuthorizationView
from django.utils.decorators import method_decorator
from django.views.decorators.debug import sensitive_post_parameters
from oauth2_provider.models import get_access_token_model, get_application_model


class CustomAuthorizationView(BaseAuthorizationView):
    def dispatch(self, request, *args, **kwargs):
        self.oauth2_data = {}
        return super().dispatch(request, *args, **kwargs)

    def error_response(self, error, application, **kwargs):
        """
        Handle errors either by redirecting to redirect_uri with a json in the body containing
        error details or providing an error response
        """
        redirect, error_response = super().error_response(error, **kwargs)

        if redirect:
            return self.redirect(error_response["url"], application)

        status = error_response["error"].status_code
        return self.render_to_response("hello", status=status)

urls.py

urlpatterns = [
...
    url(r"o/authorize/", appointmentViews.CustomAuthorizationView, name="authorize"),
    path('o/', include('oauth2_provider.urls', namespace='oauth2_provider')),
...

Please let me know if I could provide more information! Thank you in advance.

I ended up solving my problem with django rest, custom exception handling link

views.py

from rest_framework.views import exception_handler


def custom_exception_handler(exc, context):
    # Call REST framework's default exception handler first,
    # to get the standard error response.
    response = exception_handler(exc, context)

    if response is not None:
        response.data['status_code'] = response.status_code

    return response

settings.py

REST_FRAMEWORK = {
    'EXCEPTION_HANDLER': 'project.apps.utils.exception.custom_exception_handler'
} 

where project (folder) > apps (folder) > utils (folder) > exception.py > custom...

response:

{
    "detail": "Authentication credentials were not provided.",
    "status_code": 401
}
