Create Django token-based Authentication

[Hossein Rashnoo]

I have my authentication service on django. I want to role as web-service to gave other website a token and authenticate users with that token.

This is my scenario:

1. user visit external website and try to login
2. when hit the login button that website redirect user to my site to use username and password for login
3. When successfully logged in users will redirect to external website with a token
4. And every time that website send me that token, I recognize that user and pass some data to external website I'm try to use REST-Framework authentication but it is too complicated Please help me.

Hi,

What happens when you try? :)

Your setup is pretty complicated, but I don't know if REST framework will help much.

Django REST Framework already implements token authentication (check this out).

The rest of the logic is preaty much implementation by the "client" site. 

But if you do want to implement some authentication form, you could create a view that exibits an i frame, that would be loaded inside a popup box by the client site. 

That preaty much covers your problem.
