The best tutorial for an API. Thank you

[BrettBerryum]

First time Django developer says thanks! Easy to follow and makes sense. Presenter is entertaining.

[blzzzrd]

Django REST sounds like hell. Good on ya!

[natbibi]

Great explanation and easy to follow, thank you!

[nairsanty]

Good explanation. I used your generic view scripts and successfully created my REST API in Django. So thanks! But your video clarity could be a lot better...tough to read the scripts...possibly because of the live streaming?

This was great, the only issue I'm having is that for some reason after installing drf-spectacular, I can't seem to use it. I'm getting a ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'drf_spectacular' when trying to import it into the urls

Great video man
Guys quick tippp!!! When u want to pass in all fields in your serializer
You can just write:
fields = ‘__all__’ #double underscore all double underscore

[undergroundindy]

Weird, it seems like you can delete stuff without being authenticated, even though the rest framework views are IsAuthenticatedOrReadOnly... how can this be fixed?

[Maltipoops]

what http command line package do you use? Im curently using curl but it doesnt seem that practical

[ifexalex]

Nice one bro. Please 🙏 change your recording background. I struggle to see the content on the web, because it is small. And I use mobile in watching this. Try to make it more of full-screen .Thanks

[MrAnikaman]

Such a great lesson.
I did code with you for my Django API but when I try to delete a book by using token it gives "detail": "Method \"DELETE\" not allowed."
But GET, POST, HEAD, OPTIONS are available.
So why DELETE is not allowing using token ?
