Hi

I have a model such as:

class TestObj(models.Model):
    owner = models.OneToOneField(User, on_delete=models.CASCADE)
    name = models.CharField(max_length=200)


My serializer is like:

class TestObjSerializer(serializers.HyperlinkedModelSerializer):
     class Meta:
          Model = TestObj
          fields = ('name')

I have 2 issues.

Firstly, and most importantly, there must only be one TestObj per owner. 
Hence the OneToOneField. When I save currently, I get a postgres 
duplication violation error. I need to have my serializer return a 
validation error. How can I achieve this please? Should it be in my 
perform_create and perform_update methods? Or should it be in the 
serializer itself?

Secondly, if the validation takes place in the serializer, at no point do I 
want to expose the user in my API so therefor don't want to add it to 
fields = () Is that possible?

Many thanks
