Hey all, I'm superpleased to announce the release of Django REST framework 0.1. http://django-rest-framework.org/
The project is another mini-framework aimed at making it easy to build well-connected, self-describing RESTful web APIs, in the same vein as django-piston and django-tastypie. (There's even a bit of piston code in there too) Some of the stand out features: - The APIs that it creates are automatically browseable via the awesome admin-styled interface, allowing them to be self documenting, and allowing you to read, create, update and delete resources via the browser. Eg: http://api.djangorestframework.org/ - The framework uses Django's new class based views, with the various functionality separated into MixIn classes, making it really flexible - you can use parts of the framework in your own View classes, even if you don't use the core Resource and ModelResource classes it provides. - Nice simple Resource and ModelResource classes, with default handler methods on the ModelResource class and automatic input validation using ModelForms. - And a whole bunch of stuff really... Creating new resources can be as simple as adding a couple of lines to your URLconf... from django.conf.urls.defaults import patterns, url from djangorestframework import ModelResource, RootModelResource from models import MyModel urlpatterns = patterns('', url(r'^$', RootModelResource.as_view(model=MyModel)), url(r'^(?P<pk>[^/]+)/$', ModelResource.as_view(model=MyModel), name='my-model'), ) (For anything beyond that head on over to the docs...) Thoughts or feedback always appreciated. Cheers, Tom -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
