django rest framework offline documentation

Question

I need to get the documentation for django rest framework for offline usage, Why? b/c I live in Ethiopia and the internet is too damn slow for me to go online just to the doc of APIView. So does anybody know of a link where I can find the offline version of the documentation? The pdf on readthedoc is outdated and empty and I can't seem to find any other alternative.

Answer 1

Go to https://devdocs.io, head to preference and install DRF documentation.

devdocs.io is a PWA, you can open it when you're offline and access DRF documents.

Answer 2

The documentation for DRF is contained within the main repo. You can use mkdocs serve to serve the documentation locally.

Checkout the DRF repo:

git clone https://github.com/encode/django-rest-framework.git
cd django-rest-framework

Install and run mkdocs. You must do this in the above directory which contains mkdocs.yml.

pip install mkdocs
mkdocs serve
