Want To Learn Django With Rest Without Rest Frameworks

I am a php programmer, I have built some REST based solutions in php. Now I am learning python/django. I want to make a REST based solution in Django ( only for knowledge purpose )

Solution 1:

Well I get the answer of my questions finally from following link. It is possible through using Class based Views + serialization.

Restful routes and Django

Snippet links in side above link gave pretty much example to gave quite picture of how one can create a REST Api using only Django Core. Also I used serialize https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/serialization/ for Json encoding

( Now if anybody prefer, he can flag duplicate the question. ;) )

Solution 2:

You can start from learning the code of this projects:

• http://tastypieapi.org/ Tastypie
• http://www.django-rest-framework.org/ Django REST framework

They are snadrd de facto for REST API for Django and their code could be a good starting point.

Also, please review this questions:

• Creating a REST API for a Django application
• Adding REST to Django
• Django and Restful APIs
