The [Django OAuth2 Consumer][doac] library from [Rediker Software][rediker] is another package that provides [OAuth 2.0 support for REST framework][doac-rest-framework]. The package includes token scoping permissions on tokens, which allows finer-grained access to your API.
## JSON Web Token Authentication
JSON Web Token is a fairly new standard which can be used for token-based authentication. Unlike the built-in TokenAuthentication scheme, JWT Authentication doesn't need to use a database to validate a token. [Blimp][blimp] maintains the [djangorestframework-jwt][djangorestframework-jwt] package which provides a JWT Authentication class as well as a mechanism for clients to obtain a JWT given the username and password.
