Re: Is there a package that enables one Django project to authenticate via a second Django project?

That's exactly what I was thinking, but I need to test it.  Thanks!

What about using DRF with token login?

I keep running into this problem and started working on a custom solution... but before I spend hours on this, I want to confirm that such a package/solution doesn't already exist.

I was working on a large project last year that involved a single set of users and many small applications.  I made each application a Django app and had them all tied together in one database.  There was only one database dependency between the applications: the User table.

This became almost impossible to maintain for  multiple reasons:

* I had two apps that required different values in settings.py

* The test suite took forever to run

* One of the apps was developed originally using Postgres and I had to spend hours hacking through code getting it to work with MySQL

* I had to share my entire code base to employ freelancers

* I had to deprecate one of the apps and this became a project in itself (i.e., remove references in settings.py, dropping database tables, etc.)

Next time I'm in this situation, I'd like to develop each application as a separate Django project and have them authenticate (via OpenID Connect) to a project dedicated to this (e.g., accounts.mysite.com).

Has anyone seen an out-of-the-box solution for this?  The question is very open-ended.
