Interact with the API

To see the documentation for the API In development mode, login at

curl --request POST \
  --url http://127.0.0.1:8000/api-auth/login/ \
  --header 'content-type: application/json' \
  --data '{
    "username": "admin",
    "password": "admin"
    }'

Actually the default mode is “development” (same to the state of this project) in that mode a default login is the the db with username=’admin’ password=’admin’ you will get back in return your token:

{"key":"400a4e55c729ec899c9f6ac07818f2f21e3b4143"}

Then open to see the full auto-generated documentation of you API:

curl --request GET \
  --url http://127.0.0.1:8000/docs/ \
  --header 'authorization: Basic YWRtaW46YWRtaW4='

or by if BasicAuthentication is disabled and that wil be normally the case in prod and QA we use the Token:

curl --request GET \
  --url http://127.0.0.1:8000/docs/ \
  --header 'authorization: Token 400a4e55c729ec899c9f6ac07818f2f21e3b4143'

Then open
