Django library for secure user account creation and login
1 project | /r/django | 5 Sep 2022

For extended social oauth, I like django python social auth https://github.com/python-social-auth/social-app-django - Personally I found it a bit more plugin-and-forget.
Developing a web app and want to use a package I already wrote as its model. Should these be kept as separate projects?

App crashed on Heroku-22 and Python 3.11 upgrade.
1 project | /r/Heroku | 7 Feb 2023

Everything that's in `/app` is the compiled application; changes should be made locally and redeployed. Looking at the `python-jose` package, they've made the changes already (https://github.com/mpdavis/python-jose/blob/master/jose/jwt.py) so should be able to update `python-jose` locally (`requirements.txt`, I think?) and re-deploy to solve this.
Securing FastAPI with JWT Token-based Authentication

I use JOSE for the JWT token creation https://github.com/mpdavis/python-jose
How does one JWT with Python?

If you're using a API Gateway REST API, then yeah, a lambda authorizer is the way to go. You can use something like python-jose to work with the JWTs.
