What I want to do is, Get all the ENTITIES Assigned to a USER ( along with the ASSET & VALUES ).
The same data is posted for a NEW ENTITY ASSIGNMENT to USER .
From What I understood from DRF, I would need an API view, API view would call serializer, so, I would have to create a custom Serializer, then to save the data I have to override create method, where in I will have these separate serializers that would validate the data and save it.
I am not able to send the desired RESPONSE or ingest the REQUEST coming in.
What should be a way forward ?
回答1:
I have faced the similar problem So I'll explain a little scenario here. So you can take reference from that.
Added some related names in models :
class Asset(models.Model):
"""
Asset of EAV
"""
asset = models.CharField(max_length=216, null=False,
default='asset', name='asset',
verbose_name='Asset of EAV'
)
entity = models.ForeignKey(to=Entity, related_name='asset_entity')
class Value(models.Model):
"""
Value of EAV
"""
value = models.CharField(max_length=216,
null=False, default='value',
name='value', verbose_name='Value of EAV'
)
asset = models.ForeignKey(to=Asset, related_name='asset_value')
owner = models.ForeignKey(User, verbose_name='EAV Owner', related_name='eav')
initial queryset looks like this, the idea is to fetch all information that is required initially:
queryset = Entity.objects.filter('**condition comes here**')
.values('id', 'entity', 'asset_entity', 'asset_entity__asset', 'asset_entity__asset_value', 'asset_entity__asset_value__value',
'asset_entity__asset_value__owner_id',)
Pass this queryset when trying to make response :
serializer = serializer(queryset, many=True, context={'request': request})
Serailizers :
class Owner_Serializer(serializers.ModelSerializer)
class Meta:
model = User
exclude = ('**exclude fields you want to exclude**', )
class EntitySerializer(serializers.Serializer):
id = serializers.IntegerField(source='id')
entity = serializers.CharField(source='entity')
owner = serializers.SerializerMethodField()
groups = serializers.SerializerMethodField()
asset = serializers.SerializerMethodField()
def get_owner(self, obj):
return Owner_Serializer(obj.get('asset_entity__asset_value__owner_id'), context=self.context).data
Same process goes for groups and asset fields.
in get_owner() we have entity object and from that object we can get owner_id , as we have already fetched related data initially.
So the main idea here to fetch all data initially and then serilaize that data according to your requirement.
Existing Nested Serailization do not support the response format you required.
Note : Initial querset is vry important , you may need to use prefetch related there because we are fetching data using reverse relationship. Also I didn't test the queryset so have to make sure that correct related_names are used to fetch related data.
