Authentication

If your framework has the concept of a logged-in user (like Django), you can do something like:

class MyResource(DjangoResource):
    def is_authenticated(self):
        return self.request.user.is_authenticated()

If you need a more fine graned authentication you could check your current endpoint and do something like that:

class MyResource(DjangoResource):

def is_authenticated(self):

if self.endpoint in (‘update’, ‘create’):

return self.request.user.is_authenticated()

else:

return True
