Issue with django-rest-auth and dj-rest-auth libraries

[pasevin]

Not sure why, but can't use this library together with https://github.com/Tivix/django-rest-auth or later fork https://github.com/jazzband/dj-rest-auth. Keep getting errors of this type for all responses: TypeError: 'Password has been reset with the new password.' is not JSON serializable

I'll have to look through this more in depth. Thank you for bringing it to my attention. My guess here is that at some point that string literally ("Password has been reset with a new password.") is being passed into the renderer. Why that is happening is what we'd need to dig into.

[double-di]

Yes, having same problem, but with /logout method. 'Успешно вышли.' is not JSON serializable. I think it has something to do with utf8 serialization

[pasevin]

@double-di for now my solution was just to subclass the view which is failing and set renderer_classes = [JSONRenderer]

What is the data parameter in the render coming through as? The error seems to indicate it is a string. However that should work with ujson.dumps

>>> import ujson
>>> ujson.dumps("a")
'"a"'
>>> ujson.dumps(b"a")
'"a"'
>>> import json
>>> ujson.dumps("a".encode())
'"a"'
>>> json.dumps("a")
'"a"'
>>> json.dumps(b"a")

Yes, it's still happening, unfortunately.
