"'social' is not a registered namespace" when requesting social-app-django URLs

[rodgutierrez]

Hello, I'm running into issues when I send requests to any of the URLs included from social_django.urls. Requests to those URLs cause the following error:

NoReverseMatch at /auth/disconnect-backend/
'social' is not a registered namespace

I was having this problem in my production Django app, and to eliminate something wrong with my configuration as the cause, I started with a fresh project. The new project has the same issue.

Here are the installed dependencies (should only be what's required for Django, DRF, and DRF Social OAuth2):

asgiref==3.4.1

Here's the diff between my changes to the urls.py file and the fresh install version:

< from django.urls import path

20a22,23

>     url(r'^auth/', include('drf_social_oauth2.urls', namespace='drf')),

Any suggestions for what could be wrong with my configuration? Please let me know if I can provide more information to help with debugging the issue.

@rodgutierrez what is the payload of your request?

[wagnerdelima]

@rodgutierrez you are right. There is currently a bug on this endpoint. I would like to let you know that I am working on it. I will let you know as soon as I find something.

[wagnerdelima]

@rodgutierrez

I believe I fixed the problem. I just released the newest version of the framework: https://pypi.org/project/drf-social-oauth2/1.1.3/.

You can check how I wrote this sample app for facebook authentication: https://github.com/wagnerdelima/facebook_setup.

Oh, and, happy xmas.

[rodgutierrez]

@wagnerdelima sorry I missed your question a few days ago. I just tried the latest release and the disconnect-backend looks like it's working correctly now. 👍

merry christmas and happy new year to you too!

[rodgutierrez]

@wagnerdelima i was poking around in the diff for the latest release just to see if there was anything else that i should test. I think that the complete/<str:backend>/endpoint may have a similar issue to the one i originally reported. let me know if you need any information from me.

[wagnerdelima]

Hi @rodgutierrez,

I will definitely check it out in the upcoming days.

Can you include here what specific endpoint and you trying and also the request payload? Thanks.

Thanks for reporting.

[rodgutierrez]

hey @wagnerdelima, i'm trying the complete/apple-id/ endpoint. apple-id is the name of the backend that I'm using. at the moment i'm not sending anything in the request payload, but i would expect a different error if a missing payload was the problem. feel free to reach out if you need me to test anything.

here's a snippet of the error I'm seeing:

Exception Type: NoReverseMatch
Exception Value: 'social' is not a registered namespace

[wagnerdelima]

Reopening this for now.
@rodgutierrez I did not see your comment. Sorry for the huge delay.

It's working for me. try adding in the settings.py file this line
SOCIAL_AUTH_URL_NAMESPACE = 'drf:social'
