Extension for Django Rest Framework to enable simple sideloading

Documentation

The full documentation is at https://drf-sideloading.readthedocs.io.

Quickstart

Install drf-sideloading:

pip install drf-sideloading

Import Mixin SideloadableRelationsMixin:

from drf_sideloading.mixins import SideloadableRelationsMixin

Include mixin in view and define serializers dict sideloadable_relations as shown in examples

It is required to define and indicate primary relationship in sideloadable_relations dict

Example of using mixin in ViewSet

class ProductViewSet(SideloadableRelationsMixin, viewsets.ModelViewSet):
    """
    A simple ViewSet for viewing and editing products.
    """
    queryset = Product.objects.all()
    serializer_class = ProductSerializer

    sideloadable_relations = {
        'products': {'primary': True, 'serializer': ProductSerializer},
        'categories': {'serializer': CategorySerializer, 'source': 'category', 'prefetch': ['category']},
        'suppliers': {'serializer': SupplierSerializer, 'source': 'supplier', 'prefetch': ['supplier']},
        'partners': {'serializer': PartnerSerializer, 'source': 'partners', 'prefetch': ['partners']}
}

To test it out send GET request:

GET /product/?sideload=categories,partners,suppliers

Response looks like:

{
    "categories": [
        {
            "id": 1,
            ...
        }
    ],
    "partners": [
        {
            "id": 1,
            ...
        },
        {
            "id": 2,
            ...
        },
        {
            "id": 3,
            ...
        }
    ],
    "products": [
        {
            "id": 1,
            "name": "Product 1",
            "category": 1,
            "supplier": 1,
            "partner": [
                1,
                2,
                3
            ]
        }
    ],
    "suppliers": [
        {
            "id": 1,
            ...
        }
    ]
