Client for django rest framework?

Django rest framework is a great tool to expose data in restful protocol, but does it have a built in client that does the heavy lifting at the back to enable easy implementation in SOA architecture between different django projects?

So far I haven't found much from the django rest framework documentation, hopefully someone can shed some light on this one.

There is no "official" client for DRF, since REST-APIs mostly don't have much "heavy-lifting" as you perhaps know it from SOAP or similar techniques.

For most REST-APIs slumber is the easiest way to connect to these. It handles url-building, authentication and json-dump/load.
