Is there a way to generate a token for a user with a custom serializer?

I see that https://django-rest-framework-simplejwt.readthedocs.io/en/latest/creating_tokens_manually.html provides a way to create tokens manually, which is awesome!

However, it looks like https://django-rest-framework-simplejwt.readthedocs.io/en/latest/customizing_token_claims.html can be used to override the views only and not so much this token generation method?

I need to generate a token with custom claims, is this possible using this framework?

Create a custom authentication class and use that in your REST_FRAMEWORK settings.
