Introduction to
Setting up Django
RESTful APIs
REST Framework

Creating API
Practical Tasks
Endpoints
REST
(Representational
•State Transfer):
Architectural style for
Introducti designing networked
on to applications.
• Uses standard HTTP
RESTful Key Concepts:
methods like GET, POST,
APIs PUT, DELETE.
• Resources: Data entities
(e.g., users, products).
• Endpoints: URL paths to
access resources.
•
Separation of client and
server: Allows independent
development.
Scalability: Each resource
Why Use can be managed
independently.
REST Flexibility: Supports
APIs? different formats like JSON,
XML.
Stateless Communication:
Each request is
independent.
Django REST Framework is a
powerful toolkit for building Web
Introducti APIs in Django.

on to Features:

Django • Authentication and permissions.


• Serialization for converting complex data
REST types.
• Browsable API for easier testing and

Framewor debugging.
Components:

k (DRF) • Serializers: Convert data between JSON


and Django models.
• Views: Handle requests and responses.
• Routers: Automatically generate URL
routes for views.
Setting Up Django REST
Framework
1. Install DRF using pip:
• pip install djangorestframework
2. Add 'rest_framework' to INSTALLED_APPS in settings.py:
• INSTALLED_APPS = [
• ...
• 'rest_framework’,
• ]
3. Confi gure DRF settings (optional):
• REST_FRAMEWORK = {
• 'DEFAULT_PERMISSION_CLASSES': [
• 'rest_framework.permissions.AllowAny',
• ],
• 'DEFAULT_RENDERER_CLASSES': [
• 'rest_framework.renderers.JSONRenderer',
• 'rest_framework.renderers.BrowsableAPIRenderer',
• ],
• }
Task 1 - Setting Up DRF (30
mins)
1. Install Django REST Framework in your
Django project.
2. Add 'rest_framework' to the
INSTALLED_APPS in the settings.py file.
3. Run the development server and ensure
there are no errors.
Creating Your First API
Endpoint
1. Create a Django app (e.g., books) for API development:
• python manage.py startapp books
2. Define a simple model (e.g., Book with fields for title
and content).
3. Create a serializer for the model:
from rest_framework import serializers
from .models import Book
class BookSerializer(serializers.ModelSerializer):
class Meta:
model = Book
fields = ‘__all__'
Writing Views for the API
1. Use DRF's built-in views (e.g., APIView
or GenericAPIView).
2. Create a basic view for listing and
creating posts:
Configuring URL Routing for
API Endpoints
1. Add URLs for the API in books/urls.py:

2. Include the app's URLs in the main


urls.py
TASK 2- Creating API
Endpoints (45 mins)
• Create a new Django app and define a
simple model (e.g., Author, Publisher).
• Create a serializer and API view to
handle GET and POST requests for the
model.
• Set up URL routing and test the
endpoints using Django's browsable API.
Use Django's
Browsable API:
• Navigate to
/api/books/rest/ to test
GET and POST requests.
Testing Testing Tools:

Your API • Postman or cURL for


making API requests.
Validation:

• Check response status


codes and JSON
structure.
Task 3 - Testing and
Extending the API (45 mins)
• Use Postman to make GET and POST
requests to your API.
• Extend your API by adding support for
retrieving, updating, and deleting
individual posts.
• Test all endpoints to ensure they work
as expected.
