So I've upgraded django+DRF+swagger to the version that now uses the schema 
generator

The issue is most of my endpoints require authentication through a class 
that's extending BaseAuthentication, but has custom code to return a user 
tuple.  These endpoints never get rendered by swagger because they fail the 
SchemaGenerator 
class, specifically the get_links method, where its 
checking has_view_permissions.  When it gets into checking IsAuthenticated, 
it fails because the user its using is an anonymous user.

I guess that approach is ok, because the swagger endpoints wouldn't be 
exposed to unauthorized users, but how would they ever become visible 
through the SchemaGenerator ? The user it gets from the request is not 
authenticated, and the authorize buttons on swagger merely pass the 
credentials in the request header.

Do I have to implement my own SchemaGenerator that extracts the header 
credentials, and authenticates with the correct class per endpoint ?
