It allow me to pass in json format data to post for creating record after i make def create so that json format like [{data:data,data:data}] can post in. How should i do so that i can also make put request with multiple object in one request or using post method to update?
Below is views.py.
from django.shortcuts import render
from .models import ListForm
# Create your views here.
from rest_framework import viewsets
from .serializers import ListFormSerializer
from rest_framework import filters
import django_filters.rest_framework
from rest_framework.response import Response
from rest_framework import status, viewsets
class ListFormViewSet(viewsets.ModelViewSet):
"""
API endpoint that allows users to be viewed or edited.
"""
queryset = ListForm.objects.all().order_by('group')
serializer_class = ListFormSerializer
filter_backends = (django_filters.rest_framework.DjangoFilterBackend, filters.SearchFilter, filters.OrderingFilter,)
filterset_fields = ['group','key_description']
search_fields = ['group']
def create(self, request, *args, **kwargs):
serializer = self.get_serializer(data=request.data, many=isinstance(request.data,list))
serializer.is_valid(raise_exception=True)
self.perform_create(serializer)
headers = self.get_success_headers(serializer.data)
queryset = self.filter_queryset(self.get_queryset())
page = self.paginate_queryset(queryset)
if page is not None:
serializer = self.get_serializer(page, many=True)
return self.get_paginated_response(serializer.data)
serializer = self.get_serializer(queryset, many=True)
return Response(serializer.data, status=status.HTTP_201_CREATED, headers=headers)
# return Response(serializer.data, status=status.HTTP_201_CREATED, headers=headers)
Maybe you need something like this:
from rest_framework import viewsets
from rest_framework.response import Response
from rest_framework.decorators import action
import json
from .models import Post
from .serializers import PostSerializer
class PostViewSet(viewsets.ModelViewSet):
queryset = Post.objects.none()
serializer_class = serializers.PostSerializer
@action(detail=False, methods=['post'])
def update_this(self, request):
try:
data = json.loads(request.data)
except:
try:
data = dict(request.data)
except:
data = request.data
# You can do everything you want here with data
return Response({'code': 0, 'desc': 'OK', 'more_data': {}})
