AttributeError: 'Request' object has no attribute 'DELETE'

Question

I am trying to add permission for deleting an object.

views.py

class DeleteView(APIView):
    permission_classes = [IsAllowedDelete]  
    def delete(self, request, id):
        obj = Mymodel.objects.get(id=id)
        obj.delete()
        return Response({"detail" : "Deleted successfully"}, status.HTTP_204_NO_CONTENT)

urls.py

path('remove/<int:id>', vm.DeleteView.as_view(), name='delete_view'),

permissions.py

class IsAllowedDelete(permissions.BasePermission):        
    def has_permission(self, request, view):
        if request.method == "DELETE":
             print('id : ',request.DELETE["id"])
             return True
        else: 
            return False

But I am getting the below error:-

AttributeError: 'Request' object has no attribute 'DELETE'

at below statement:-

 request.DELETE["id"]

Please help me to fix this.

Request objects probably don't have .DELETE, only .GET and .POST.

If you want the id passed from the url. You can access it with view.kwargs['id']
