How to integrate swagger with JWT?

[JHaazez]

Is it possible to use django-rest-swagger with JSON web tokens?

I've perused the documentation and open issues and many people have examples using 'rest_framework.authentication.TokenAuthentication' in their DEFAULT_AUTHENTICATION_CLASSES but I have not seen any examples for 'rest_framework_jwt.authentication.JSONWebTokenAuthentication'.

Is this functionality part of the project or has this not been implemented yet?

For example this is what I am trying to achieve:
REST_FRAMEWORK = {
'DEFAULT_AUTHENTICATION_CLASSES': (
'rest_framework_jwt.authentication.JSONWebTokenAuthentication',
),
}

SWAGGER_SETTINGS = {
'SECURITY_DEFINITIONS': {
'basic': {'type': 'apiKey'},
'api_key': {
'type': 'apiKey',
'in': 'header',
'name': 'Authorization'
}
}
}

Also, I do not see the Authorization parameter in my requests with the above method, which seems to be noted by another user commenting on this issue: #708.

2.2.0 is having issue to include token in header. I have same above config, working for 2.1.2 but not 2.2.0

Hello!

After the new version of OpenAPI it should now be possible to speficy JWT authentification like this:

{ "type": "http", "scheme": "bearer", "bearerFormat": "JWT", }

But if I do so I get a 'Unknown security definition type http' error.

I would be very grateful if you could add those changes so that Django REST Swagger is compliant to the new OpenAPI 3.0 spec.

It is bad and I used django-rest-swagger==2.1.2. Can you show me your configuration?
this is my versions:
djangorestframework==3.6.4
djangorestframework-jwt==1.11.0
django-rest-swagger==2.1.2

Think you.

Any update on this topic ?

For people looking for a solution, my currently working setup for djangorestframework-simplejwt :
1- Use django-rest-swagger==2.1.2 with:

'SECURITY_DEFINITIONS': {
        'api_key': {
            'type': 'apiKey',
            'in': 'header',
            'name': 'Authorization'
        }
    }

2- As a value after clicking on the Authorize button : 'Bearer yourAccessToken'

The UI is way better on the 2.2.0 so I can't wait for an update here.
