pypi djangorestframework
Install Django using pip:
pip install django
Install Django REST framework using pip:
pip install djangorestframework
Add 'rest_framework' to the INSTALLED_APPS setting in your Django project's settings.py file. This enables the Django REST framework in your project:
INSTALLED_APPS = [ ... 'rest_framework', ]
Create serializers to convert complex data types, such as querysets and model instances, to native Python data types that can then be rendered into JSON or XML. Example: ```python from rest_framework import serializers
class YourModelSerializer(serializers.ModelSerializer): class Meta: model = YourModel fields = 'all' ```
- Create views that define the actions that will be taken when a particular URL is accessed. Example: ```python from rest_framework import generics from .models import YourModel from .serializers import YourModelSerializer
class YourModelListCreate(generics.ListCreateAPIView): queryset = YourModel.objects.all() serializer_class = YourModelSerializer ```
- Include the URLs for the API endpoints in your project's urls.py file. Example: ```python from django.urls import path from .views import YourModelListCreate
urlpatterns = [ path('your-model/', YourModelListCreate.as_view()), ] ```
- Run the Django development server and test the REST API endpoints.
