I have written a login view using build-in auth ,django auth.login() gives above error my code with error code o 500

from rest_framework.response import Response
from rest_framework import status
from rest_framework.decorators import api_view
from django.contrib.auth.models import User
from django.contrib.auth import authenticate,logout,login
@api_view(['POST'])
def register(request):
    user=User.objects.create_user(username=request.POST['username'],email=request.POST['email'],password=request.POST['password'])
    return Response({'ok':'True'},status=status.HTTP_201_CREATED)
@api_view(['POST'])
def login(request):
    user=authenticate(
        username=request.POST['username'],
        password=request.POST['password']
    if user is not None:
        login(request,user)
        return Response({'ok':'True'},status=status.HTTP_200_OK)
    else:
        return Response({'ok':'False'},status=status.HTTP_401_UNAUTHORIZED)
You have a function def login and a library import with the same name. 
What you need is to change one of them.
Example :
- def user_login  // import login as Login_process
