Hello,
I was trying to find a way to change the serializer field conditionally
based on the request. When the request is GET, then I would like to have a
nested serializer, otherwise I'm not interested in the details of the
object and rather use the list of pk s to process the data. Is this
approach advisable? Is there a best practice or do I have to change my
mindset altogether?
Below is my approach so far:
class FooSerializer(ModelSerializer):
bar = SerializerMethodField('get_bar')
def get_bar(self, obj):
req = self.context['request']
if(req.method == 'GET'):
bar = BarSerializer(many=True) # shouldn't I pass the data
related to 'Bar' here?
else:
bar = PrimaryKeyRelatedField(many=True, queryset=Bar.objects.
filter(foo=obj)) # is this correct?
# insert class Meta here...
Thanks in advance,
Ege
