I'm building a Django application that exposes a REST API by which users can query my application's models. I'm following the instructions here.
My Model looks like this:
class MyObject(models.Model):
name = models.TextField()
My Route looks like this in myApp's url.py:
from rest_framework import routers
router = routers.DefaultRouter()
router.register(r'myObjects/(?P<id>\d+)/?$', views.MyObjectsViewSet)
url(r'^api/', include(router.urls)),
My Serializer looks like this:
class MyObjectSerializer(serializers.HyperlinkedModelSerializer):
class Meta:
model = MyObject
fields = ('id', 'name',)
My Viewset looks like this:
class MyObjectsViewSet(viewsets.ViewSet):
def retrieve(self,request,pk=None):
queryset = MyObjects.objects.get(pk=pk).customMyObjectList()
if not queryset:
return Response(status=status.HTTP_400_BAD_REQUEST)
else:
serializer = MyObjectSerializer(queryset)
return Response(serializer.data,status=status.HTTP_200_OK)
When I hit /api/myObjects/60/ I get the following error:
`base_name` argument not specified, and could not automatically determine the name from the viewset, as it does not have a `.model` or `.queryset` attribute.
This says that I need a base_name parameter on my route. But from the docs, it is unclear to me what that value of that base_name parameter should be. Can someone please tell me what the route should look like with the base_name?
