Features

wq.db provides the following modules:

wq.db.rest

Extends the excellent Django REST Framework with a collection of views, serializers, and context processors useful for creating a progresively enhanced website that serves as its own mobile app and its own REST API. The core of the library is an admin-like ModelRouter that connects REST urls to registered models, and provides a descriptive configuration object for consumption by wq.app’s client-side router. wq.db.rest also includes a GeoJSON serializer/renderer.

wq.db.patterns

A collection of design patterns (e.g. identify, relate) that provide long-term flexibility and sustainability for user-maintained data collection applications. These patterns are implemented as installable Django apps.
