Nope, because not only it's difficult to maintain, but migrating the old data is also a headache. So here what django rest framework comes into play. You can set up apis to be used by your Android application, hence have to maintain a single database against multiple apps.
django-reversion is an extension to the Django web framework that provides version control for model instances.
The Django REST framework (DRF) is a toolkit built on top of the Django web framework that reduces the amount of code you need to write to create REST interfaces.
I have an app developed using Django and Django Rest framework. I would like to add the django-reversion feature to my app.
I have already tried http://django-reversion.readthedocs.org/en/latest/api.html#low-level-api but I have failed to make specific changes to my app.
Below are the modules of the app where I would like to include the Django-reversion to restore objects if they get deleted. How to set the django-reversion configuration for the below modules
admin.py:-
from django.contrib import admin
from.models import Category
admin.site.register(Category)
models.py:-
from django.db import models
class Category(models.Model):
name = models.CharField(max_length=64, unique=True)
def __unicode__(self):
return self.name
serializers.py:-
from rest_framework import serializers
from .models import Category
class CategorySerializer(serializers.ModelSerializer):
courses = serializers.HyperlinkedRelatedField(
many=True
read_only=True
view_name='course-detail'
)
class Meta:
model = Category
fields = ('pk', 'name', 'courses',)
urls.py :-
from django.conf.urls import patterns, url
from rest_framework.urlpatterns import format_suffix_patterns
from .import views
from django.conf.urls import include
category_list = views.CategoryViewSet.as_view({
'get': 'list',
'post': 'create'
})
category_detail = views.CategoryViewSet.as_view({
'get': 'retrieve',
'put': 'update',
'patch': 'partial_update',
'delete': 'destroy',
})
urlpatterns = format_suffix_patterns([
url(r'^categories/$',
category_list,
name='category-list'),
url(r'^categories/(?P<pk>[0-9]+)/$',
category_detail,
name='category-detail'),
])
urlpatterns += [
url(r'^api-auth/', include('rest_framework.urls',
namespace='rest_framework')),
]
views.py :-
from rest_framework import permissions
from rest_framework import viewsets
from .models import Category
from .serializers import CategorySerializer
class CategoryViewSet(viewsets.ModelViewSet):
queryset = Category.objects.all()
serializer_class = CategorySerializer
permission_classes = (permissions.IsAuthenticatedorReadOnly,)
