How to implement Django + Tornado interaction?

Question

Django

Hello everyone,
there was a problem with the interaction of django + tornado, namely the project is written in django (api (django-rest-framework)), frontend (react), user authentication through jwt tokens, and now you need to fasten private messages, chat (real- time). Initially I wanted to bring it to node.js, but after googling I came across a non-blocking server and a framework (tornado) and even in python, the choice fell on it, but now the problem is how do I authenticate a user in a chat (tornado) if I don’t have sessions, but there are only tokens, so that it would be possible to implement a message exchange between users?
So far I'm doing this:
1) I connected the library for working with jwt tokens to tornado
2) when setting up a socket connection, I passed the user's token in the parameter
3) decrypted this token on the back using the same private key that was used for encryption, and received the user id
4) using the Psycopg2 driver directly accessed the database to write and read data from tables
Maybe someone will advise something better than this solution ?
