Hi, I am trying to setup a django REST based service, following is my setup:
MySQL DB Table (Inventory) contents is retrieved by a Django REST API query and finally passed as a list of dictionaries to a python code which will then implement some business logic based on this list. The working requirement right now is that there is no plan for users interacting with the app using a web interface (planning to use a QT desktop app for this). What I have so far, I've setup the models and model serializers, in my view I've defined a ListApiView with a get_quey_set method that will return a Response object with my list using json.dumps. The python code that does the query is using request.get on a url in order to get this json formatted list to work on. My question is if this is a valid approach to what I am trying to achieve? Am I missing something in the setup and/or would anyone recommend an alternative approach to doing this? I'm using Python 2.7 with the latest build of Django and the Django REST framework, presently everything is running on a testing machine using CentOS 7. Any feedback is greatly appreciated, thank you for your time. _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
