They also deal with validating input values, as well as retrieving and setting the values from their parent objects.\n\n\n\n\nNote:\n The serializer fields are declared in \nfields.py\n, but by convention you should import them using \nfrom rest_framework import serializers\n and refer to fields as \nserializers.\n.\n\n\n\n\nCore arguments\n\n\nEach serializer field class constructor takes at least these arguments.  Some Field classes take additional, field-specific arguments, but the following should always be accepted:\n\n\nread_only\n\n\nRead-only fields are included in the API output, but should not be included in the input during create or update operations. Any 'read_only' fields that are incorrectly included in the serializer input will be ignored.\n\n\nSet this to \nTrue\n to ensure that the field is used when serializing a representation, but is not used when creating or updating an instance during deserialization.\n\n\nDefaults to \nFalse\n\n\nwrite_only\n\n\nSet this to \nTrue\n to ensure that the field may be used when updating or creating an instance, but is not included when serializing the representation.\n\n\nDefaults to \nFalse\n\n\nrequired\n\n\nNormally an error will be raised if a field is not supplied during deserialization.\nSet to false if this field is not required to be present during deserialization.\n\n\nSetting this to \nFalse\n also allows the object attribute or dictionary key to be omitted from output when serializing the instance. If the key is not present it will simply not be included in the output representation.\n\n\nDefaults to \nTrue\n.\n\n\nallow_null\n\n\nNormally an error will be raised if \nNone\n is passed to a serializer field. Set this keyword argument to \nTrue\n if \nNone\n should be considered a valid value.\n\n\nDefaults to \nFalse\n\n\ndefault\n\n\nIf set, this gives the default value that will be used for the field if no input value is supplied. If not set the default behaviour is to not populate the attribute at all.\n\n\nThe \ndefault\n is not applied during partial update operations. In the partial update case only fields that are provided in the incoming data will have a validated value returned.\n\n\nMay be set to a function or other callable, in which case the value will be evaluated each time it is used. When called, it will receive no arguments. If the callable has a \nset_context\n method, that will be called each time before getting the value with the field instance as only argument. This works the same way as for \nvalidators\n.\n\n\nWhen serializing the instance, default will be used if the the object attribute or dictionary key is not present in the instance.\n\n\nNote that setting a \ndefault\n value implies that the field is not required.

May be a method that only takes a \nself\n argument, such as \nURLField(source='get_absolute_url')\n, or may use dotted notation to traverse attributes, such as \nEmailField(source='user.email')\n. When serializing fields with dotted notation, it may be necessary to provide a \ndefault\n value if any object is not present or is empty during attribute traversal.\n\n\nThe value \nsource='*'\n has a special meaning, and is used to indicate that the entire object should be passed through to the field.  This can be useful for creating nested representations, or for fields which require access to the complete object in order to determine the output representation.\n\n\nDefaults to the name of the field.\n\n\nvalidators\n\n\nA list of validator functions which should be applied to the incoming field input, and which either raise a validation error or simply return. Validator functions should typically raise \nserializers.ValidationError\n, but Django's built-in \nValidationError\n is also supported for compatibility with validators defined in the Django codebase or third party Django packages.\n\n\nerror_messages\n\n\nA dictionary of error codes to error messages.\n\n\nlabel\n\n\nA short text string that may be used as the name of the field in HTML form fields or other descriptive elements.\n\n\nhelp_text\n\n\nA text string that may be used as a description of the field in HTML form fields or other descriptive elements.\n\n\ninitial\n\n\nA value that should be used for pre-populating the value of HTML form fields. You may pass a callable to it, just as\nyou may do with any regular Django \nField\n:\n\n\nimport datetime\nfrom rest_framework import serializers\nclass ExampleSerializer(serializers.Serializer):\n    day = serializers.DateField(initial=datetime.date.today)\n\n\n\nstyle\n\n\nA dictionary of key-value pairs that can be used to control how renderers should render the field.\n\n\nTwo examples here are \n'input_type'\n and \n'base_template'\n:\n\n\n# Use  for the input.\npassword = serializers.CharField(\n    style={'input_type': 'password'}\n)\n\n# Use a radio input instead of a select input.\ncolor_channel = serializers.ChoiceField(\n    choices=['red', 'green', 'blue'],\n    style={'base_template': 'radio.html'}\n)\n\n\n\nFor more details see the \nHTML & Forms\n documentation.\n\n\n\n\nBoolean fields\n\n\nBooleanField\n\n\nA boolean representation.\n\n\nWhen using HTML encoded form input be aware that omitting a value will always be treated as setting a field to \nFalse\n, even if it has a \ndefault=True\n option specified. This is because HTML checkbox inputs represent the unchecked state by omitting the value, so REST framework treats omission as if it is an empty checkbox input.\n\n\nCorresponds to \ndjango.db.models.fields.BooleanField\n.\n\n\nSignature:\n \nBooleanField()\n\n\nNullBooleanField\n\n\nA boolean representation that also accepts \nNone\n as a valid value.\n\n\nCorresponds to \ndjango.db.models.fields.NullBooleanField\n.\n\n\nSignature:\n \nNullBooleanField()\n\n\n\n\nString fields\n\n\nCharField\n\n\nA text representation. Optionally validates the text to be shorter than \nmax_length\n and longer than \nmin_length\n.\n\n\nCorresponds to \ndjango.db.models.fields.CharField\n or \ndjango.db.models.fields.TextField\n.\n\n\nSignature:\n \nCharField(max_length=None, min_length=None, allow_blank=False, trim_whitespace=True)\n\n\n\n\nmax_length\n - Validates that the input contains no more than this number of characters.\n\n\nmin_length\n - Validates that the input contains no fewer than this number of characters.\n\n\nallow_blank\n - If set to \nTrue\n then the empty string should be considered a valid value. If set to \nFalse\n then the empty string is considered invalid and will raise a validation error. Defaults to \nFalse\n.\n\n\ntrim_whitespace\n - If set to \nTrue\n then leading and trailing whitespace is trimmed. Defaults to \nTrue\n.\n\n\n\n\nThe \nallow_null\n option is also available for string fields, although its usage is discouraged in favor of \nallow_blank\n. It is valid to set both \nallow_blank=True\n and \nallow_null=True\n, but doing so means that there will be two differing types of empty value permissible for string representations, which can lead to data inconsistencies and subtle application bugs.\n\n\nEmailField\n\n\nA text representation, validates the text to be a valid e-mail address.\n\n\nCorresponds to \ndjango.db.models.fields.EmailField\n\n\nSignature:\n \nEmailField(max_length=None, min_length=None, allow_blank=False)\n\n\nRegexField\n\n\nA text representation, that validates the given value matches against a certain regular expression.\n\n\nCorresponds to \ndjango.forms.fields.RegexField\n.\n\n\nSignature:\n \nRegexField(regex, max_length=None, min_length=None, allow_blank=False)\n\n\nThe mandatory \nregex\n argument may either be a string, or a compiled python regular expression object.\n\n\nUses Django's \ndjango.core.validators.RegexValidator\n for validation.\n\n\nSlugField\n\n\nA \nRegexField\n that validates the input against the pattern \n[a-zA-Z0-9_-]+\n.\n\n\nCorresponds to \ndjango.db.models.fields.SlugField\n.\n\n\nSignature:\n \nSlugField(max_length=50, min_length=None, allow_blank=False)\n\n\nURLField\n\n\nA \nRegexField\n that validates the input against a URL matching pattern. Expects fully qualified URLs of the form \nhttp:///\n.\n\n\nCorresponds to \ndjango.db.models.fields.URLField\n.  Uses Django's \ndjango.core.validators.URLValidator\n for validation.\n\n\nSignature:\n \nURLField(max_length=200, min_length=None, allow_blank=False)\n\n\nUUIDField\n\n\nA field that ensures the input is a valid UUID string. The \nto_internal_value\n method will return a \nuuid.UUID\n instance. On output the field will return a string in the canonical hyphenated format, for example:\n\n\n\"de305d54-75b4-431b-adb2-eb6b9e546013\"\n\n\n\nSignature:\n \nUUIDField(format='hex_verbose')\n\n\n\n\nformat\n: Determines the representation format of the uuid value\n\n\n'hex_verbose'\n - The cannoncical hex representation, including hyphens: \n\"5ce0e9a5-5ffa-654b-cee0-1238041fb31a\"\n\n\n'hex'\n - The compact hex representation of the UUID, not including hyphens: \n\"5ce0e9a55ffa654bcee01238041fb31a\"\n\n\n'int'\n - A 128 bit integer representation of the UUID: \n\"123456789012312313134124512351145145114\"\n\n\n'urn'\n - RFC 4122 URN representation of the UUID: \n\"urn:uuid:5ce0e9a5-5ffa-654b-cee0-1238041fb31a\"\n\n  Changing the \nformat\n parameters only affects representation values. All formats are accepted by \nto_internal_value\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFilePathField\n\n\nA field whose choices are limited to the filenames in a certain directory on the filesystem\n\n\nCorresponds to \ndjango.forms.fields.FilePathField\n.\n\n\nSignature:\n \nFilePathField(path, match=None, recursive=False, allow_files=True, allow_folders=False, required=None, **kwargs)\n\n\n\n\npath\n - The absolute filesystem path to a directory from which this FilePathField should get its choice.\n\n\nmatch\n - A regular expression, as a string, that FilePathField will use to filter filenames.\n\n\nrecursive\n - Specifies whether all subdirectories of path should be included.  Default is \nFalse\n.\n\n\nallow_files\n - Specifies whether files in the specified location should be included. Default is \nTrue\n. Either this or \nallow_folders\n must be \nTrue\n.\n\n\nallow_folders\n - Specifies whether folders in the specified location should be included. Default is \nFalse\n. Either this or \nallow_files\n must be \nTrue\n.\n\n\n\n\nIPAddressField\n\n\nA field that ensures the input is a valid IPv4 or IPv6 string.\n\n\nCorresponds to \ndjango.forms.fields.IPAddressField\n and \ndjango.forms.fields.GenericIPAddressField\n.\n\n\nSignature\n: \nIPAddressField(protocol='both', unpack_ipv4=False, **options)\n\n\n\n\nprotocol\n Limits valid inputs to the specified protocol. Accepted values are 'both' (default), 'IPv4' or 'IPv6'. Matching is case insensitive.\n\n\nunpack_ipv4\n Unpacks IPv4 mapped addresses like ::ffff:192.0.2.1. If this option is enabled that address would be unpacked to 192.0.2.1. Default is disabled. Can only be used when protocol is set to 'both'.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nNumeric fields\n\n\nIntegerField\n\n\nAn integer representation.\n\n\nCorresponds to \ndjango.db.models.fields.IntegerField\n, \ndjango.db.models.fields.SmallIntegerField\n, \ndjango.db.models.fields.PositiveIntegerField\n and \ndjango.db.models.fields.PositiveSmallIntegerField\n.\n\n\nSignature\n: \nIntegerField(max_value=None, min_value=None)\n\n\n\n\nmax_value\n Validate that the number provided is no greater than this value.\n\n\nmin_value\n Validate that the number provided is no less than this value.\n\n\n\n\nFloatField\n\n\nA floating point representation.\n\n\nCorresponds to \ndjango.db.models.fields.FloatField\n.\n\n\nSignature\n: \nFloatField(max_value=None, min_value=None)\n\n\n\n\nmax_value\n Validate that the number provided is no greater than this value.\n\n\nmin_value\n Validate that the number provided is no less than this value.\n\n\n\n\nDecimalField\n\n\nA decimal representation, represented in Python by a \nDecimal\n instance.\n\n\nCorresponds to \ndjango.db.models.fields.DecimalField\n.\n\n\nSignature\n: \nDecimalField(max_digits, decimal_places, coerce_to_string=None, max_value=None, min_value=None)\n\n\n\n\nmax_digits\n The maximum number of digits allowed in the number. It must be either \nNone\n or an integer greater than or equal to \ndecimal_places\n.\n\n\ndecimal_places\n The number of decimal places to store with the number.\n\n\ncoerce_to_string\n Set to \nTrue\n if string values should be returned for the representation, or \nFalse\n if \nDecimal\n objects should be returned. Defaults to the same value as the \nCOERCE_DECIMAL_TO_STRING\n settings key, which will be \nTrue\n unless overridden. If \nDecimal\n objects are returned by the serializer, then the final output format will be determined by the renderer. Note that setting \nlocalize\n will force the value to \nTrue\n.\n\n\nmax_value\n Validate that the number provided is no greater than this value.\n\n\nmin_value\n Validate that the number provided is no less than this value.\n\n\nlocalize\n Set to \nTrue\n to enable localization of input and output based on the current locale. This will also force \ncoerce_to_string\n to \nTrue\n. Defaults to \nFalse\n. Note that data formatting is enabled if you have set \nUSE_L10N=True\n in your settings file.\n\n\n\n\nExample usage\n\n\nTo validate numbers up to 999 with a resolution of 2 decimal places, you would use:\n\n\nserializers.DecimalField(max_digits=5, decimal_places=2)\n\n\n\nAnd to validate numbers up to anything less than one billion with a resolution of 10 decimal places:\n\n\nserializers.DecimalField(max_digits=19, decimal_places=10)\n\n\n\nThis field also takes an optional argument, \ncoerce_to_string\n. If set to \nTrue\n the representation will be output as a string. If set to \nFalse\n the representation will be left as a \nDecimal\n instance and the final representation will be determined by the renderer.\n\n\nIf unset, this will default to the same value as the \nCOERCE_DECIMAL_TO_STRING\n setting, which is \nTrue\n unless set otherwise.\n\n\n\n\nDate and time fields\n\n\nDateTimeField\n\n\nA date and time representation.\n\n\nCorresponds to \ndjango.db.models.fields.DateTimeField\n.\n\n\nSignature:\n \nDateTimeField(format=api_settings.DATETIME_FORMAT, input_formats=None)\n\n\n\n\nformat\n - A string representing the output format. If not specified, this defaults to the same value as the \nDATETIME_FORMAT\n settings key, which will be \n'iso-8601'\n unless set. Setting to a format string indicates that \nto_representation\n return values should be coerced to string output. Format strings are described below. Setting this value to \nNone\n indicates that Python \ndatetime\n objects should be returned by \nto_representation\n. In this case the datetime encoding will be determined by the renderer.\n\n\ninput_formats\n - A list of strings representing the input formats which may be used to parse the date.  If not specified, the \nDATETIME_INPUT_FORMATS\n setting will be used, which defaults to \n['iso-8601']\n.\n\n\n\n\nDateTimeField\n format strings.\n\n\nFormat strings may either be \nPython strftime formats\n which explicitly specify the format, or the special string \n'iso-8601'\n, which indicates that \nISO 8601\n style datetimes should be used. (eg \n'2013-01-29T12:34:56.000000Z'\n)\n\n\nWhen a value of \nNone\n is used for the format \ndatetime\n objects will be returned by \nto_representation\n and the final output representation will determined by the renderer class.\n\n\nauto_now_add\n model fields.\nauto_now\n and \n\n\nWhen using \nModelSerializer\n or \nHyperlinkedModelSerializer\n, note that any model fields with \nauto_now=True\n or \nauto_now_add=True\n will use serializer fields that are \nread_only=True\n by default.\n\n\nIf you want to override this behavior, you'll need to declare the \nDateTimeField\n explicitly on the serializer.  For example:\n\n\nclass CommentSerializer(serializers.ModelSerializer):\n    created = serializers.DateTimeField()\n\n    class Meta:\n        model = Comment\n\n\n\nDateField\n\n\nA date representation.\n\n\nCorresponds to \ndjango.db.models.fields.DateField\n\n\nSignature:\n \nDateField(format=api_settings.DATE_FORMAT, input_formats=None)\n\n\n\n\nformat\n - A string representing the output format.

Performs Django's standard FileField validation.\n\n\nCorresponds to \ndjango.forms.fields.FileField\n.\n\n\nSignature:\n \nFileField(max_length=None, allow_empty_file=False, use_url=UPLOADED_FILES_USE_URL)\n\n\n\n\nmax_length\n - Designates the maximum length for the file name.\n\n\nallow_empty_file\n - Designates if empty files are allowed.\n\n\nuse_url\n - If set to \nTrue\n then URL string values will be used for the output representation. If set to \nFalse\n then filename string values will be used for the output representation. Defaults to the value of the \nUPLOADED_FILES_USE_URL\n settings key, which is \nTrue\n unless set otherwise.\n\n\n\n\nImageField\n\n\nAn image representation. Validates the uploaded file content as matching a known image format.\n\n\nCorresponds to \ndjango.forms.fields.ImageField\n.\n\n\nSignature:\n \nImageField(max_length=None, allow_empty_file=False, use_url=UPLOADED_FILES_USE_URL)\n\n\n\n\nmax_length\n - Designates the maximum length for the file name.\n\n\nallow_empty_file\n - Designates if empty files are allowed.\n\n\nuse_url\n - If set to \nTrue\n then URL string values will be used for the output representation. If set to \nFalse\n then filename string values will be used for the output representation. Defaults to the value of the \nUPLOADED_FILES_USE_URL\n settings key, which is \nTrue\n unless set otherwise.\n\n\n\n\nRequires either the \nPillow\n package or \nPIL\n package.  The \nPillow\n package is recommended, as \nPIL\n is no longer actively maintained.\n\n\n\n\nComposite fields\n\n\nListField\n\n\nA field class that validates a list of objects.\n\n\nSignature\n: \nListField(child=, min_length=None, max_length=None)\n\n\n\n\nchild\n - A field instance that should be used for validating the objects in the list. If this argument is not provided then objects in the list will not be validated.\n\n\nmin_length\n - Validates that the list contains no fewer than this number of elements.\n\n\nmax_length\n - Validates that the list contains no more than this number of elements.\n\n\n\n\nFor example, to validate a list of integers you might use something like the following:\n\n\nscores = serializers.ListField(\n   child=serializers.IntegerField(min_value=0, max_value=100)\n)\n\n\n\nThe \nListField\n class also supports a declarative style that allows you to write reusable list field classes.\n\n\nclass StringListField(serializers.ListField):\n    child = serializers.CharField()\n\n\n\nWe can now reuse our custom \nStringListField\n class throughout our application, without having to provide a \nchild\n argument to it.\n\n\nDictField\n\n\nA field class that validates a dictionary of objects. The keys in \nDictField\n are always assumed to be string values.\n\n\nSignature\n: \nDictField(child=)\n\n\n\n\nchild\n - A field instance that should be used for validating the values in the dictionary. If this argument is not provided then values in the mapping will not be validated.\n\n\n\n\nFor example, to create a field that validates a mapping of strings to strings, you would write something like this:\n\n\ndocument = DictField(child=CharField())\n\n\n\nYou can also use the declarative style, as with \nListField\n. For example:\n\n\nclass DocumentField(DictField):\n    child = CharField()\n\n\n\nJSONField\n\n\nA field class that validates that the incoming data structure consists of valid JSON primitives. In its alternate binary mode, it will represent and validate JSON-encoded binary strings.\n\n\nSignature\n: \nJSONField(binary)\n\n\n\n\nbinary\n - If set to \nTrue\n then the field will output and validate a JSON encoded string, rather than a primitive data structure. Defaults to \nFalse\n.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMiscellaneous fields\n\n\nReadOnlyField\n\n\nA field class that simply returns the value of the field without modification.\n\n\nThis field is used by default with \nModelSerializer\n when including field names that relate to an attribute rather than a model field.\n\n\nSignature\n: \nReadOnlyField()\n\n\nFor example, if \nhas_expired\n was a property on the \nAccount\n model, then the following serializer would automatically generate it as a \nReadOnlyField\n:\n\n\nclass AccountSerializer(serializers.ModelSerializer):\n    class Meta:\n        model = Account\n        fields = ('id', 'account_name', 'has_expired')\n\n\n\nHiddenField\n\n\nA field class that does not take a value based on user input, but instead takes its value from a default value or callable.\n\n\nSignature\n: \nHiddenField()\n\n\nFor example, to include a field that always provides the current time as part of the serializer validated data, you would use the following:\n\n\nmodified = serializers.HiddenField(default=timezone.now)\n\n\n\nThe \nHiddenField\n class is usually only needed if you have some validation that needs to run based on some pre-provided field values, but you do not want to expose all of those fields to the end user.\n\n\nFor further examples on \nHiddenField\n see the \nvalidators\n documentation.\n\n\nModelField\n\n\nA generic field that can be tied to any arbitrary model field. The \nModelField\n class delegates the task of serialization/deserialization to its associated model field.  This field can be used to create serializer fields for custom model fields, without having to create a new custom serializer field.\n\n\nThis field is used by \nModelSerializer\n to correspond to custom model field classes.\n\n\nSignature:\n \nModelField(model_field=)\n\n\nThe \nModelField\n class is generally intended for internal use, but can be used by your API if needed.  In order to properly instantiate a \nModelField\n, it must be passed a field that is attached to an instantiated model.  For example: \nModelField(model_field=MyModel()._meta.get_field('custom_field'))\n\n\nSerializerMethodField\n\n\nThis is a read-only field. It gets its value by calling a method on the serializer class it is attached to. It can be used to add any sort of data to the serialized representation of your object.\n\n\nSignature\n: \nSerializerMethodField(method_name=None)\n\n\n\n\nmethod_name\n - The name of the method on the serializer to be called. If not included this defaults to \nget_\n.\n\n\n\n\nThe serializer method referred to by the \nmethod_name\n argument should accept a single argument (in addition to \nself\n), which is the object being serialized. It should return whatever you want to be included in the serialized representation of the object. For example:\n\n\nfrom django.contrib.auth.models import User\nfrom django.utils.timezone import now\nfrom rest_framework import serializers\n\nclass UserSerializer(serializers.ModelSerializer):\n    days_since_joined = serializers.SerializerMethodField()\n\n    class Meta:\n        model = User\n\n    def get_days_since_joined(self, obj):\n        return (now() - obj.date_joined).days\n\n\n\n\n\nCustom fields\n\n\nIf you want to create a custom field, you'll need to subclass \nField\n and then override either one or both of the \n.to_representation()\n and \n.to_internal_value()\n methods.  These two methods are used to convert between the initial datatype, and a primitive, serializable datatype. Primitive datatypes will typically be any of a number, string, boolean, \ndate\n/\ntime\n/\ndatetime\n or \nNone\n. They may also be any list or dictionary like object that only contains other primitive objects. Other types might be supported, depending on the renderer that you are using.\n\n\nThe \n.to_representation()\n method is called to convert the initial datatype into a primitive, serializable datatype.\n\n\nThe \nto_internal_value()\n method is called to restore a primitive datatype into its internal python representation. This method should raise a \nserializers.ValidationError\n if the data is invalid.\n\n\nNote that the \nWritableField\n class that was present in version 2.x no longer exists. You should subclass \nField\n and override \nto_internal_value()\n if the field supports data input.\n\n\nExamples\n\n\nLet's look at an example of serializing a class that represents an RGB color value:\n\n\nclass Color(object):\n    \"\"\"\n    A color represented in the RGB colorspace.\n    \"\"\"\n    def __init__(self, red, green, blue):\n        assert(red >= 0 and green >= 0 and blue >= 0)\n        assert(red < 256 and green < 256 and blue < 256)\n        self.red, self.green, self.blue = red, green, blue\n\nclass ColorField(serializers.Field):\n    \"\"\"\n    Color objects are serialized into 'rgb(#, #, #)' notation.\n    \"\"\"\n    def to_representation(self, obj):\n        return \"rgb(%d, %d, %d)\" % (obj.red, obj.green, obj.blue)\n\n    def to_internal_value(self, data):\n        data = data.strip('rgb(').rstrip(')')\n        red, green, blue = [int(col) for col in data.split(',')]\n        return Color(red, green, blue)\n\n\n\nBy default field values are treated as mapping to an attribute on the object.  If you need to customize how the field value is accessed and set you need to override \n.get_attribute()\n and/or \n.get_value()\n.\n\n\nAs an example, let's create a field that can be used to represent the class name of the object being serialized:\n\n\nclass ClassNameField(serializers.Field):\n    def get_attribute(self, obj):\n        # We pass the object instance onto `to_representation`,\n        # not just the field attribute.\n        return obj\n\n    def to_representation(self, obj):\n        \"\"\"\n        Serialize the object's class name.\n        \"\"\"\n        return obj.__class__.__name__\n\n\n\nRaising validation errors\n\n\nOur \nColorField\n class above currently does not perform any data validation.\nTo indicate invalid data, we should raise a \nserializers.ValidationError\n, like so:\n\n\ndef to_internal_value(self, data):\n    if not isinstance(data, six.text_type):\n        msg = 'Incorrect type. Expected a string, but got %s'\n        raise ValidationError(msg % type(data).__name__)\n\n    if not re.match(r'^rgb\\([0-9]+,[0-9]+,[0-9]+\\)$', data):\n        raise ValidationError('Incorrect format. Expected `rgb(#,#,#)`.')\n\n    data = data.strip('rgb(').rstrip(')')\n    red, green, blue = [int(col) for col in data.split(',')]\n\n    if any([col > 255 or col < 0 for col in (red, green, blue)]):\n        raise ValidationError('Value out of range. Must be between 0 and 255.')\n\n    return Color(red, green, blue)\n\n\n\nThe \n.fail()\n method is a shortcut for raising \nValidationError\n that takes a message string from the \nerror_messages\n dictionary. For example:\n\n\ndefault_error_messages = {\n    'incorrect_type': 'Incorrect type. Expected a string, but got {input_type}',\n    'incorrect_format': 'Incorrect format. Expected `rgb(#,#,#)`.',\n    'out_of_range': 'Value out of range. Must be between 0 and 255.'\n}\n\ndef to_internal_value(self, data):\n    if not isinstance(data, six.text_type):\n        self.fail('incorrect_type', input_type=type(data).__name__)\n\n    if not re.match(r'^rgb\\([0-9]+,[0-9]+,[0-9]+\\)$', data):\n        self.fail('incorrect_format')\n\n    data = data.strip('rgb(').rstrip(')')\n    red, green, blue = [int(col) for col in data.split(',')]\n\n    if any([col > 255 or col < 0 for col in (red, green, blue)]):\n        self.fail('out_of_range')\n\n    return Color(red, green, blue)\n\n\n\nThis style keeps your error messages cleaner and more separated from your code, and should be preferred.\n\n\nThird party packages\n\n\nThe following third party packages are also available.\n\n\nDRF Compound Fields\n\n\nThe \ndrf-compound-fields\n package provides \"compound\" serializer fields, such as lists of simple values, which can be described by other fields rather than serializers with the \nmany=True\n option. Also provided are fields for typed dictionaries and values that can be either a specific type or a list of items of that type.\n\n\nDRF Extra Fields\n\n\nThe \ndrf-extra-fields\n package provides extra serializer fields for REST framework, including \nBase64ImageField\n and \nPointField\n classes.\n\n\ndjangrestframework-recursive\n\n\nthe \ndjangorestframework-recursive\n package provides a \nRecursiveField\n for serializing and deserializing recursive structures\n\n\ndjango-rest-framework-gis\n\n\nThe \ndjango-rest-framework-gis\n package provides geographic addons for django rest framework like a  \nGeometryField\n field and a GeoJSON serializer.\n\n\ndjango-rest-framework-hstore\n\n\nThe \ndjango-rest-framework-hstore\n package provides an \nHStoreField\n to support \ndjango-hstore\n \nDictionaryField\n model field.",
+            "text": "Serializer fields\n\n\n\n\nEach field in a Form class is responsible not only for validating data, but also for \"cleaning\" it \u2014 normalizing it to a consistent format.\n\n\n\u2014 \nDjango documentation\n\n\n\n\nSerializer fields handle converting between primitive values and internal datatypes.  They also deal with validating input values, as well as retrieving and setting the values from their parent objects.\n\n\n\n\nNote:\n The serializer fields are declared in \nfields.py\n, but by convention you should import them using \nfrom rest_framework import serializers\n and refer to fields as \nserializers.\n.\n\n\n\n\nCore arguments\n\n\nEach serializer field class constructor takes at least these arguments.  Some Field classes take additional, field-specific arguments, but the following should always be accepted:\n\n\nread_only\n\n\nRead-only fields are included in the API output, but should not be included in the input during create or update operations. Any 'read_only' fields that are incorrectly included in the serializer input will be ignored.\n\n\nSet this to \nTrue\n to ensure that the field is used when serializing a representation, but is not used when creating or updating an instance during deserialization.\n\n\nDefaults to \nFalse\n\n\nwrite_only\n\n\nSet this to \nTrue\n to ensure that the field may be used when updating or creating an instance, but is not included when serializing the representation.\n\n\nDefaults to \nFalse\n\n\nrequired\n\n\nNormally an error will be raised if a field is not supplied during deserialization.\nSet to false if this field is not required to be present during deserialization.\n\n\nSetting this to \nFalse\n also allows the object attribute or dictionary key to be omitted from output when serializing the instance. If the key is not present it will simply not be included in the output representation.\n\n\nDefaults to \nTrue\n.\n\n\nallow_null\n\n\nNormally an error will be raised if \nNone\n is passed to a serializer field. Set this keyword argument to \nTrue\n if \nNone\n should be considered a valid value.\n\n\nDefaults to \nFalse\n\n\ndefault\n\n\nIf set, this gives the default value that will be used for the field if no input value is supplied. If not set the default behaviour is to not populate the attribute at all.\n\n\nThe \ndefault\n is not applied during partial update operations. In the partial update case only fields that are provided in the incoming data will have a validated value returned.\n\n\nMay be set to a function or other callable, in which case the value will be evaluated each time it is used. When called, it will receive no arguments. If the callable has a \nset_context\n method, that will be called each time before getting the value with the field instance as only argument. This works the same way as for \nvalidators\n.\n\n\nWhen serializing the instance, default will be used if the the object attribute or dictionary key is not present in the instance.\n\n\nNote that setting a \ndefault\n value implies that the field is not required. Including both the \ndefault\n and \nrequired\n keyword arguments is invalid and will raise an error.\n\n\nsource\n\n\nThe name of the attribute that will be used to populate the field.  May be a method that only takes a \nself\n argument, such as \nURLField(source='get_absolute_url')\n, or may use dotted notation to traverse attributes, such as \nEmailField(source='user.email')\n. When serializing fields with dotted notation, it may be necessary to provide a \ndefault\n value if any object is not present or is empty during attribute traversal.\n\n\nThe value \nsource='*'\n has a special meaning, and is used to indicate that the entire object should be passed through to the field.  This can be useful for creating nested representations, or for fields which require access to the complete object in order to determine the output representation.\n\n\nDefaults to the name of the field.\n\n\nvalidators\n\n\nA list of validator functions which should be applied to the incoming field input, and which either raise a validation error or simply return. Validator functions should typically raise \nserializers.ValidationError\n, but Django's built-in \nValidationError\n is also supported for compatibility with validators defined in the Django codebase or third party Django packages.\n\n\nerror_messages\n\n\nA dictionary of error codes to error messages.\n\n\nlabel\n\n\nA short text string that may be used as the name of the field in HTML form fields or other descriptive elements.\n\n\nhelp_text\n\n\nA text string that may be used as a description of the field in HTML form fields or other descriptive elements.\n\n\ninitial\n\n\nA value that should be used for pre-populating the value of HTML form fields. You may pass a callable to it, just as\nyou may do with any regular Django \nField\n:\n\n\nimport datetime\nfrom rest_framework import serializers\nclass ExampleSerializer(serializers.Serializer):\n    day = serializers.DateField(initial=datetime.date.today)\n\n\n\nstyle\n\n\nA dictionary of key-value pairs that can be used to control how renderers should render the field.\n\n\nTwo examples here are \n'input_type'\n and \n'base_template'\n:\n\n\n# Use  for the input.\npassword = serializers.CharField(\n    style={'input_type': 'password'}\n)\n\n# Use a radio input instead of a select input.\ncolor_channel = serializers.ChoiceField(\n    choices=['red', 'green', 'blue'],\n    style={'base_template': 'radio.html'}\n)\n\n\n\nFor more details see the \nHTML & Forms\n documentation.\n\n\n\n\nBoolean fields\n\n\nBooleanField\n\n\nA boolean representation.\n\n\nWhen using HTML encoded form input be aware that omitting a value will always be treated as setting a field to \nFalse\n, even if it has a \ndefault=True\n option specified. This is because HTML checkbox inputs represent the unchecked state by omitting the value, so REST framework treats omission as if it is an empty checkbox input.\n\n\nCorresponds to \ndjango.db.models.fields.BooleanField\n.\n\n\nSignature:\n \nBooleanField()\n\n\nNullBooleanField\n\n\nA boolean representation that also accepts \nNone\n as a valid value.\n\n\nCorresponds to \ndjango.db.models.fields.NullBooleanField\n.\n\n\nSignature:\n \nNullBooleanField()\n\n\n\n\nString fields\n\n\nCharField\n\n\nA text representation. Optionally validates the text to be shorter than \nmax_length\n and longer than \nmin_length\n.\n\n\nCorresponds to \ndjango.db.models.fields.CharField\n or \ndjango.db.models.fields.TextField\n.\n\n\nSignature:\n \nCharField(max_length=None, min_length=None, allow_blank=False, trim_whitespace=True)\n\n\n\n\nmax_length\n - Validates that the input contains no more than this number of characters.\n\n\nmin_length\n - Validates that the input contains no fewer than this number of characters.\n\n\nallow_blank\n - If set to \nTrue\n then the empty string should be considered a valid value. If set to \nFalse\n then the empty string is considered invalid and will raise a validation error. Defaults to \nFalse\n.\n\n\ntrim_whitespace\n - If set to \nTrue\n then leading and trailing whitespace is trimmed. Defaults to \nTrue\n.\n\n\n\n\nThe \nallow_null\n option is also available for string fields, although its usage is discouraged in favor of \nallow_blank\n. It is valid to set both \nallow_blank=True\n and \nallow_null=True\n, but doing so means that there will be two differing types of empty value permissible for string representations, which can lead to data inconsistencies and subtle application bugs.\n\n\nEmailField\n\n\nA text representation, validates the text to be a valid e-mail address.\n\n\nCorresponds to \ndjango.db.models.fields.EmailField\n\n\nSignature:\n \nEmailField(max_length=None, min_length=None, allow_blank=False)\n\n\nRegexField\n\n\nA text representation, that validates the given value matches against a certain regular expression.\n\n\nCorresponds to \ndjango.forms.fields.RegexField\n.\n\n\nSignature:\n \nRegexField(regex, max_length=None, min_length=None, allow_blank=False)\n\n\nThe mandatory \nregex\n argument may either be a string, or a compiled python regular expression object.\n\n\nUses Django's \ndjango.core.validators.RegexValidator\n for validation.\n\n\nSlugField\n\n\nA \nRegexField\n that validates the input against the pattern \n[a-zA-Z0-9_-]+\n.\n\n\nCorresponds to \ndjango.db.models.fields.SlugField\n.\n\n\nSignature:\n \nSlugField(max_length=50, min_length=None, allow_blank=False)\n\n\nURLField\n\n\nA \nRegexField\n that validates the input against a URL matching pattern. Expects fully qualified URLs of the form \nhttp:///\n.\n\n\nCorresponds to \ndjango.db.models.fields.URLField\n.  Uses Django's \ndjango.core.validators.URLValidator\n for validation.\n\n\nSignature:\n \nURLField(max_length=200, min_length=None, allow_blank=False)\n\n\nUUIDField\n\n\nA field that ensures the input is a valid UUID string. The \nto_internal_value\n method will return a \nuuid.UUID\n instance. On output the field will return a string in the canonical hyphenated format, for example:\n\n\n\"de305d54-75b4-431b-adb2-eb6b9e546013\"\n\n\n\nSignature:\n \nUUIDField(format='hex_verbose')\n\n\n\n\nformat\n: Determines the representation format of the uuid value\n\n\n'hex_verbose'\n - The cannoncical hex representation, including hyphens: \n\"5ce0e9a5-5ffa-654b-cee0-1238041fb31a\"\n\n\n'hex'\n - The compact hex representation of the UUID, not including hyphens: \n\"5ce0e9a55ffa654bcee01238041fb31a\"\n\n\n'int'\n - A 128 bit integer representation of the UUID: \n\"123456789012312313134124512351145145114\"\n\n\n'urn'\n - RFC 4122 URN representation of the UUID: \n\"urn:uuid:5ce0e9a5-5ffa-654b-cee0-1238041fb31a\"\n\n  Changing the \nformat\n parameters only affects representation values. All formats are accepted by \nto_internal_value\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFilePathField\n\n\nA field whose choices are limited to the filenames in a certain directory on the filesystem\n\n\nCorresponds to \ndjango.forms.fields.FilePathField\n.\n\n\nSignature:\n \nFilePathField(path, match=None, recursive=False, allow_files=True, allow_folders=False, required=None, **kwargs)\n\n\n\n\npath\n - The absolute filesystem path to a directory from which this FilePathField should get its choice.\n\n\nmatch\n - A regular expression, as a string, that FilePathField will use to filter filenames.\n\n\nrecursive\n - Specifies whether all subdirectories of path should be included.  Default is \nFalse\n.\n\n\nallow_files\n - Specifies whether files in the specified location should be included. Default is \nTrue\n. Either this or \nallow_folders\n must be \nTrue\n.\n\n\nallow_folders\n - Specifies whether folders in the specified location should be included. Default is \nFalse\n.

Accepted values are 'both' (default), 'IPv4' or 'IPv6'. Matching is case insensitive.\n\n\nunpack_ipv4\n Unpacks IPv4 mapped addresses like ::ffff:192.0.2.1. If this option is enabled that address would be unpacked to 192.0.2.1. Default is disabled. Can only be used when protocol is set to 'both'.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nNumeric fields\n\n\nIntegerField\n\n\nAn integer representation.\n\n\nCorresponds to \ndjango.db.models.fields.IntegerField\n, \ndjango.db.models.fields.SmallIntegerField\n, \ndjango.db.models.fields.PositiveIntegerField\n and \ndjango.db.models.fields.PositiveSmallIntegerField\n.\n\n\nSignature\n: \nIntegerField(max_value=None, min_value=None)\n\n\n\n\nmax_value\n Validate that the number provided is no greater than this value.\n\n\nmin_value\n Validate that the number provided is no less than this value.\n\n\n\n\nFloatField\n\n\nA floating point representation.\n\n\nCorresponds to \ndjango.db.models.fields.FloatField\n.\n\n\nSignature\n: \nFloatField(max_value=None, min_value=None)\n\n\n\n\nmax_value\n Validate that the number provided is no greater than this value.\n\n\nmin_value\n Validate that the number provided is no less than this value.\n\n\n\n\nDecimalField\n\n\nA decimal representation, represented in Python by a \nDecimal\n instance.\n\n\nCorresponds to \ndjango.db.models.fields.DecimalField\n.\n\n\nSignature\n: \nDecimalField(max_digits, decimal_places, coerce_to_string=None, max_value=None, min_value=None)\n\n\n\n\nmax_digits\n The maximum number of digits allowed in the number. It must be either \nNone\n or an integer greater than or equal to \ndecimal_places\n.\n\n\ndecimal_places\n The number of decimal places to store with the number.\n\n\ncoerce_to_string\n Set to \nTrue\n if string values should be returned for the representation, or \nFalse\n if \nDecimal\n objects should be returned. Defaults to the same value as the \nCOERCE_DECIMAL_TO_STRING\n settings key, which will be \nTrue\n unless overridden. If \nDecimal\n objects are returned by the serializer, then the final output format will be determined by the renderer. Note that setting \nlocalize\n will force the value to \nTrue\n.\n\n\nmax_value\n Validate that the number provided is no greater than this value.\n\n\nmin_value\n Validate that the number provided is no less than this value.\n\n\nlocalize\n Set to \nTrue\n to enable localization of input and output based on the current locale. This will also force \ncoerce_to_string\n to \nTrue\n. Defaults to \nFalse\n. Note that data formatting is enabled if you have set \nUSE_L10N=True\n in your settings file.\n\n\nrounding\n Sets the rounding mode used when quantising to the configured precision. Valid values are \ndecimal\n module rounding modes\n. Defaults to \nNone\n.\n\n\n\n\nExample usage\n\n\nTo validate numbers up to 999 with a resolution of 2 decimal places, you would use:\n\n\nserializers.DecimalField(max_digits=5, decimal_places=2)\n\n\n\nAnd to validate numbers up to anything less than one billion with a resolution of 10 decimal places:\n\n\nserializers.DecimalField(max_digits=19, decimal_places=10)\n\n\n\nThis field also takes an optional argument, \ncoerce_to_string\n. If set to \nTrue\n the representation will be output as a string. If set to \nFalse\n the representation will be left as a \nDecimal\n instance and the final representation will be determined by the renderer.\n\n\nIf unset, this will default to the same value as the \nCOERCE_DECIMAL_TO_STRING\n setting, which is \nTrue\n unless set otherwise.\n\n\n\n\nDate and time fields\n\n\nDateTimeField\n\n\nA date and time representation.\n\n\nCorresponds to \ndjango.db.models.fields.DateTimeField\n.\n\n\nSignature:\n \nDateTimeField(format=api_settings.DATETIME_FORMAT, input_formats=None)\n\n\n\n\nformat\n - A string representing the output format. If not specified, this defaults to the same value as the \nDATETIME_FORMAT\n settings key, which will be \n'iso-8601'\n unless set. Setting to a format string indicates that \nto_representation\n return values should be coerced to string output. Format strings are described below.

Defaults to \n\"More than {count} items\u2026\"\n\n\n\n\nBoth the \nallow_blank\n and \nallow_null\n are valid options on \nChoiceField\n, although it is highly recommended that you only use one and not both. \nallow_blank\n should be preferred for textual choices, and \nallow_null\n should be preferred for numeric or other non-textual choices.\n\n\nMultipleChoiceField\n\n\nA field that can accept a set of zero, one or many values, chosen from a limited set of choices. Takes a single mandatory argument. \nto_internal_value\n returns a \nset\n containing the selected values.\n\n\nSignature:\n \nMultipleChoiceField(choices)\n\n\n\n\nchoices\n - A list of valid values, or a list of \n(key, display_name)\n tuples.\n\n\nallow_blank\n - If set to \nTrue\n then the empty string should be considered a valid value. If set to \nFalse\n then the empty string is considered invalid and will raise a validation error. Defaults to \nFalse\n.\n\n\nhtml_cutoff\n - If set this will be the maximum number of choices that will be displayed by a HTML select drop down. Can be used to ensure that automatically generated ChoiceFields with very large possible selections do not prevent a template from rendering. Defaults to \nNone\n.\n\n\nhtml_cutoff_text\n - If set this will display a textual indicator if the maximum number of items have been cutoff in an HTML select drop down. Defaults to \n\"More than {count} items\u2026\"\n\n\n\n\nAs with \nChoiceField\n, both the \nallow_blank\n and \nallow_null\n options are valid, although it is highly recommended that you only use one and not both. \nallow_blank\n should be preferred for textual choices, and \nallow_null\n should be preferred for numeric or other non-textual choices.\n\n\n\n\nFile upload fields\n\n\nParsers and file uploads.\n\n\nThe \nFileField\n and \nImageField\n classes are only suitable for use with \nMultiPartParser\n or \nFileUploadParser\n. Most parsers, such as e.g. JSON don't support file uploads.\nDjango's regular \nFILE_UPLOAD_HANDLERS\n are used for handling uploaded files.\n\n\nFileField\n\n\nA file representation.  Performs Django's standard FileField validation.\n\n\nCorresponds to \ndjango.forms.fields.FileField\n.\n\n\nSignature:\n \nFileField(max_length=None, allow_empty_file=False, use_url=UPLOADED_FILES_USE_URL)\n\n\n\n\nmax_length\n - Designates the maximum length for the file name.\n\n\nallow_empty_file\n - Designates if empty files are allowed.\n\n\nuse_url\n - If set to \nTrue\n then URL string values will be used for the output representation. If set to \nFalse\n then filename string values will be used for the output representation. Defaults to the value of the \nUPLOADED_FILES_USE_URL\n settings key, which is \nTrue\n unless set otherwise.\n\n\n\n\nImageField\n\n\nAn image representation. Validates the uploaded file content as matching a known image format.\n\n\nCorresponds to \ndjango.forms.fields.ImageField\n.\n\n\nSignature:\n \nImageField(max_length=None, allow_empty_file=False, use_url=UPLOADED_FILES_USE_URL)\n\n\n\n\nmax_length\n - Designates the maximum length for the file name.\n\n\nallow_empty_file\n - Designates if empty files are allowed.\n\n\nuse_url\n - If set to \nTrue\n then URL string values will be used for the output representation. If set to \nFalse\n then filename string values will be used for the output representation. Defaults to the value of the \nUPLOADED_FILES_USE_URL\n settings key, which is \nTrue\n unless set otherwise.\n\n\n\n\nRequires either the \nPillow\n package or \nPIL\n package.  The \nPillow\n package is recommended, as \nPIL\n is no longer actively maintained.\n\n\n\n\nComposite fields\n\n\nListField\n\n\nA field class that validates a list of objects.\n\n\nSignature\n: \nListField(child=, min_length=None, max_length=None)\n\n\n\n\nchild\n - A field instance that should be used for validating the objects in the list. If this argument is not provided then objects in the list will not be validated.\n\n\nmin_length\n - Validates that the list contains no fewer than this number of elements.\n\n\nmax_length\n - Validates that the list contains no more than this number of elements.\n\n\n\n\nFor example, to validate a list of integers you might use something like the following:\n\n\nscores = serializers.ListField(\n   child=serializers.IntegerField(min_value=0, max_value=100)\n)\n\n\n\nThe \nListField\n class also supports a declarative style that allows you to write reusable list field classes.\n\n\nclass StringListField(serializers.ListField):\n    child = serializers.CharField()\n\n\n\nWe can now reuse our custom \nStringListField\n class throughout our application, without having to provide a \nchild\n argument to it.\n\n\nDictField\n\n\nA field class that validates a dictionary of objects. The keys in \nDictField\n are always assumed to be string values.\n\n\nSignature\n: \nDictField(child=)\n\n\n\n\nchild\n - A field instance that should be used for validating the values in the dictionary. If this argument is not provided then values in the mapping will not be validated.\n\n\n\n\nFor example, to create a field that validates a mapping of strings to strings, you would write something like this:\n\n\ndocument = DictField(child=CharField())\n\n\n\nYou can also use the declarative style, as with \nListField\n. For example:\n\n\nclass DocumentField(DictField):\n    child = CharField()\n\n\n\nJSONField\n\n\nA field class that validates that the incoming data structure consists of valid JSON primitives. In its alternate binary mode, it will represent and validate JSON-encoded binary strings.\n\n\nSignature\n: \nJSONField(binary)\n\n\n\n\nbinary\n - If set to \nTrue\n then the field will output and validate a JSON encoded string, rather than a primitive data structure. Defaults to \nFalse\n.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMiscellaneous fields\n\n\nReadOnlyField\n\n\nA field class that simply returns the value of the field without modification.\n\n\nThis field is used by default with \nModelSerializer\n when including field names that relate to an attribute rather than a model field.\n\n\nSignature\n: \nReadOnlyField()\n\n\nFor example, if \nhas_expired\n was a property on the \nAccount\n model, then the following serializer would automatically generate it as a \nReadOnlyField\n:\n\n\nclass AccountSerializer(serializers.ModelSerializer):\n    class Meta:\n        model = Account\n        fields = ('id', 'account_name', 'has_expired')\n\n\n\nHiddenField\n\n\nA field class that does not take a value based on user input, but instead takes its value from a default value or callable.\n\n\nSignature\n: \nHiddenField()\n\n\nFor example, to include a field that always provides the current time as part of the serializer validated data, you would use the following:\n\n\nmodified = serializers.HiddenField(default=timezone.now)\n\n\n\nThe \nHiddenField\n class is usually only needed if you have some validation that needs to run based on some pre-provided field values, but you do not want to expose all of those fields to the end user.\n\n\nFor further examples on \nHiddenField\n see the \nvalidators\n documentation.\n\n\nModelField\n\n\nA generic field that can be tied to any arbitrary model field. The \nModelField\n class delegates the task of serialization/deserialization to its associated model field.  This field can be used to create serializer fields for custom model fields, without having to create a new custom serializer field.\n\n\nThis field is used by \nModelSerializer\n to correspond to custom model field classes.\n\n\nSignature:\n \nModelField(model_field=)\n\n\nThe \nModelField\n class is generally intended for internal use, but can be used by your API if needed.  In order to properly instantiate a \nModelField\n, it must be passed a field that is attached to an instantiated model.  For example: \nModelField(model_field=MyModel()._meta.get_field('custom_field'))\n\n\nSerializerMethodField\n\n\nThis is a read-only field. It gets its value by calling a method on the serializer class it is attached to. It can be used to add any sort of data to the serialized representation of your object.\n\n\nSignature\n: \nSerializerMethodField(method_name=None)\n\n\n\n\nmethod_name\n - The name of the method on the serializer to be called. If not included this defaults to \nget_\n.\n\n\n\n\nThe serializer method referred to by the \nmethod_name\n argument should accept a single argument (in addition to \nself\n), which is the object being serialized. It should return whatever you want to be included in the serialized representation of the object. For example:\n\n\nfrom django.contrib.auth.models import User\nfrom django.utils.timezone import now\nfrom rest_framework import serializers\n\nclass UserSerializer(serializers.ModelSerializer):\n    days_since_joined = serializers.SerializerMethodField()\n\n    class Meta:\n        model = User\n\n    def get_days_since_joined(self, obj):\n        return (now() - obj.date_joined).days\n\n\n\n\n\nCustom fields\n\n\nIf you want to create a custom field, you'll need to subclass \nField\n and then override either one or both of the \n.to_representation()\n and \n.to_internal_value()\n methods.  These two methods are used to convert between the initial datatype, and a primitive, serializable datatype. Primitive datatypes will typically be any of a number, string, boolean, \ndate\n/\ntime\n/\ndatetime\n or \nNone\n. They may also be any list or dictionary like object that only contains other primitive objects. Other types might be supported, depending on the renderer that you are using.\n\n\nThe \n.to_representation()\n method is called to convert the initial datatype into a primitive, serializable datatype.\n\n\nThe \nto_internal_value()\n method is called to restore a primitive datatype into its internal python representation. This method should raise a \nserializers.ValidationError\n if the data is invalid.\n\n\nNote that the \nWritableField\n class that was present in version 2.x no longer exists. You should subclass \nField\n and override \nto_internal_value()\n if the field supports data input.\n\n\nExamples\n\n\nLet's look at an example of serializing a class that represents an RGB color value:\n\n\nclass Color(object):\n    \"\"\"\n    A color represented in the RGB colorspace.\n    \"\"\"\n    def __init__(self, red, green, blue):\n        assert(red >= 0 and green >= 0 and blue >= 0)\n        assert(red < 256 and green < 256 and blue < 256)\n        self.red, self.green, self.blue = red, green, blue\n\nclass ColorField(serializers.Field):\n    \"\"\"\n    Color objects are serialized into 'rgb(#, #, #)' notation.\n    \"\"\"\n    def to_representation(self, obj):\n        return \"rgb(%d, %d, %d)\" % (obj.red, obj.green, obj.blue)\n\n    def to_internal_value(self, data):\n        data = data.strip('rgb(').rstrip(')')\n        red, green, blue = [int(col) for col in data.split(',')]\n        return Color(red, green, blue)\n\n\n\nBy default field values are treated as mapping to an attribute on the object.  If you need to customize how the field value is accessed and set you need to override \n.get_attribute()\n and/or \n.get_value()\n.\n\n\nAs an example, let's create a field that can be used to represent the class name of the object being serialized:\n\n\nclass ClassNameField(serializers.Field):\n    def get_attribute(self, obj):\n        # We pass the object instance onto `to_representation`,\n        # not just the field attribute.\n        return obj\n\n    def to_representation(self, obj):\n        \"\"\"\n        Serialize the object's class name.\n        \"\"\"\n        return obj.__class__.__name__\n\n\n\nRaising validation errors\n\n\nOur \nColorField\n class above currently does not perform any data validation.\nTo indicate invalid data, we should raise a \nserializers.ValidationError\n, like so:\n\n\ndef to_internal_value(self, data):\n    if not isinstance(data, six.text_type):\n        msg = 'Incorrect type. Expected a string, but got %s'\n        raise ValidationError(msg % type(data).__name__)\n\n    if not re.match(r'^rgb\\([0-9]+,[0-9]+,[0-9]+\\)$', data):\n        raise ValidationError('Incorrect format. Expected `rgb(#,#,#)`.')\n\n    data = data.strip('rgb(').rstrip(')')\n    red, green, blue = [int(col) for col in data.split(',')]\n\n    if any([col > 255 or col < 0 for col in (red, green, blue)]):\n        raise ValidationError('Value out of range. Must be between 0 and 255.')\n\n    return Color(red, green, blue)\n\n\n\nThe \n.fail()\n method is a shortcut for raising \nValidationError\n that takes a message string from the \nerror_messages\n dictionary. For example:\n\n\ndefault_error_messages = {\n    'incorrect_type': 'Incorrect type. Expected a string, but got {input_type}',\n    'incorrect_format': 'Incorrect format. Expected `rgb(#,#,#)`.',\n    'out_of_range': 'Value out of range. Must be between 0 and 255.'\n}\n\ndef to_internal_value(self, data):\n    if not isinstance(data, six.text_type):\n        self.fail('incorrect_type', input_type=type(data).__name__)\n\n    if not re.match(r'^rgb\\([0-9]+,[0-9]+,[0-9]+\\)$', data):\n        self.fail('incorrect_format')\n\n    data = data.strip('rgb(').rstrip(')')\n    red, green, blue = [int(col) for col in data.split(',')]\n\n    if any([col > 255 or col < 0 for col in (red, green, blue)]):\n        self.fail('out_of_range')\n\n    return Color(red, green, blue)\n\n\n\nThis style keeps your error messages cleaner and more separated from your code, and should be preferred.\n\n\nThird party packages\n\n\nThe following third party packages are also available.\n\n\nDRF Compound Fields\n\n\nThe \ndrf-compound-fields\n package provides \"compound\" serializer fields, such as lists of simple values, which can be described by other fields rather than serializers with the \nmany=True\n option. Also provided are fields for typed dictionaries and values that can be either a specific type or a list of items of that type.\n\n\nDRF Extra Fields\n\n\nThe \ndrf-extra-fields\n package provides extra serializer fields for REST framework, including \nBase64ImageField\n and \nPointField\n classes.\n\n\ndjangrestframework-recursive\n\n\nthe \ndjangorestframework-recursive\n package provides a \nRecursiveField\n for serializing and deserializing recursive structures\n\n\ndjango-rest-framework-gis\n\n\nThe \ndjango-rest-framework-gis\n package provides geographic addons for django rest framework like a  \nGeometryField\n field and a GeoJSON serializer.\n\n\ndjango-rest-framework-hstore\n\n\nThe \ndjango-rest-framework-hstore\n package provides an \nHStoreField\n to support \ndjango-hstore\n \nDictionaryField\n model field.",

By promoting third party packages we ensure that the responsibility for a package remains with its author. If a package proves suitably popular it can always be considered for inclusion into the core REST framework.\n\n\nIf you have an idea for a new feature please consider how it may be packaged as a Third Party Package. We're always happy to discuss ideas on the \nMailing List\n.\n\n\nHow to create a Third Party Package\n\n\nCreating your package\n\n\nYou can use \nthis cookiecutter template\n for creating reusable Django REST Framework packages quickly. Cookiecutter creates projects from project templates. While optional, this cookiecutter template includes best practices from Django REST framework and other packages, as well as a Travis CI configuration, Tox configuration, and a sane setup.py for easy PyPI registration/distribution.\n\n\nNote: Let us know if you have an alternate cookiecuter package so we can also link to it.\n\n\nRunning the initial cookiecutter command\n\n\nTo run the initial cookiecutter command, you'll first need to install the Python \ncookiecutter\n package.\n\n\n$ pip install cookiecutter\n\n\n\nOnce \ncookiecutter\n is installed just run the following to create a new project.\n\n\n$ cookiecutter gh:jpadilla/cookiecutter-django-rest-framework\n\n\n\nYou'll be prompted for some questions, answer them, then it'll create your Python package in the current working directory based on those values.\n\n\nfull_name (default is \"Your full name here\")? Johnny Appleseed\nemail (default is \"you@example.com\")? jappleseed@example.com\ngithub_username (default is \"yourname\")? jappleseed\npypi_project_name (default is \"dj-package\")? djangorestframework-custom-auth\nrepo_name (default is \"dj-package\")? django-rest-framework-custom-auth\napp_name (default is \"djpackage\")? custom_auth\nproject_short_description (default is \"Your project description goes here\")?\nyear (default is \"2014\")?\nversion (default is \"0.1.0\")?\n\n\n\nGetting it onto GitHub\n\n\nTo put your project up on GitHub, you'll need a repository for it to live in. You can create a new repository \nhere\n. If you need help, check out the \nCreate A Repo\n article on GitHub.\n\n\nAdding to Travis CI\n\n\nWe recommend using \nTravis CI\n, a hosted continuous integration service which integrates well with GitHub and is free for public repositories.\n\n\nTo get started with Travis CI, \nsign in\n with your GitHub account. Once you're signed in, go to your \nprofile page\n and enable the service hook for the repository you want.\n\n\nIf you use the cookiecutter template, your project will already contain a \n.travis.yml\n file which Travis CI will use to build your project and run tests.  By default, builds are triggered everytime you push to your repository or create Pull Request.\n\n\nUploading to PyPI\n\n\nOnce you've got at least a prototype working and tests running, you should publish it on PyPI to allow others to install it via \npip\n.\n\n\nYou must \nregister\n an account before publishing to PyPI.\n\n\nTo register your package on PyPI run the following command.\n\n\n$ python setup.py register\n\n\n\nIf this is the first time publishing to PyPI, you'll be prompted to login.\n\n\nNote: Before publishing you'll need to make sure you have the latest pip that supports \nwheel\n as well as install the \nwheel\n package.\n\n\n$ pip install --upgrade pip\n$ pip install wheel\n\n\n\nAfter this, every time you want to release a new version on PyPI just run the following command.\n\n\n$ python setup.py publish\nYou probably want to also tag the version now:\n    git tag -a {0} -m 'version 0.1.0'\n    git push --tags\n\n\n\nAfter releasing a new version to PyPI, it's always a good idea to tag the version and make available as a GitHub Release.\n\n\nWe recommend to follow \nSemantic Versioning\n for your package's versions.\n\n\nDevelopment\n\n\nVersion requirements\n\n\nThe cookiecutter template assumes a set of supported versions will be provided for Python and Django. Make sure you correctly update your requirements, docs, \ntox.ini\n, \n.travis.yml\n, and \nsetup.py\n to match the set of versions you wish to support.\n\n\nTests\n\n\nThe cookiecutter template includes a \nruntests.py\n which uses the \npytest\n package as a test runner.\n\n\nBefore running, you'll need to install a couple test requirements.\n\n\n$ pip install -r requirements.txt\n\n\n\nOnce requirements installed, you can run \nruntests.py\n.\n\n\n$ ./runtests.py\n\n\n\nRun using a more concise output style.\n\n\n$ ./runtests.py -q\n\n\n\nRun the tests using a more concise output style, no coverage, no flake8.\n\n\n$ ./runtests.py --fast\n\n\n\nDon't run the flake8 code linting.\n\n\n$ ./runtests.py --nolint\n\n\n\nOnly run the flake8 code linting, don't run the tests.\n\n\n$ ./runtests.py --lintonly\n\n\n\nRun the tests for a given test case.\n\n\n$ ./runtests.py MyTestCase\n\n\n\nRun the tests for a given test method.\n\n\n$ ./runtests.py MyTestCase.test_this_method\n\n\n\nShorter form to run the tests for a given test method.\n\n\n$ ./runtests.py test_this_method\n\n\n\nTo run your tests against multiple versions of Python as different versions of requirements such as Django we recommend using \ntox\n. \nTox\n is a generic virtualenv management and test command line tool.\n\n\nFirst, install \ntox\n globally.\n\n\n$ pip install tox\n\n\n\nTo run \ntox\n, just simply run:\n\n\n$ tox\n\n\n\nTo run a particular \ntox\n environment:\n\n\n$ tox -e envlist\n\n\n\nenvlist\n is a comma-separated value to that specifies the environments to run tests against. To view a list of all possible test environments, run:\n\n\n$ tox -l\n\n\n\nVersion compatibility\n\n\nSometimes, in order to ensure your code works on various different versions of Django, Python or third party libraries, you'll need to run slightly different code depending on the environment.

By promoting third party packages we ensure that the responsibility for a package remains with its author. If a package proves suitably popular it can always be considered for inclusion into the core REST framework.\n\n\nIf you have an idea for a new feature please consider how it may be packaged as a Third Party Package. We're always happy to discuss ideas on the \nMailing List\n.\n\n\nHow to create a Third Party Package\n\n\nCreating your package\n\n\nYou can use \nthis cookiecutter template\n for creating reusable Django REST Framework packages quickly. Cookiecutter creates projects from project templates. While optional, this cookiecutter template includes best practices from Django REST framework and other packages, as well as a Travis CI configuration, Tox configuration, and a sane setup.py for easy PyPI registration/distribution.\n\n\nNote: Let us know if you have an alternate cookiecuter package so we can also link to it.\n\n\nRunning the initial cookiecutter command\n\n\nTo run the initial cookiecutter command, you'll first need to install the Python \ncookiecutter\n package.\n\n\n$ pip install cookiecutter\n\n\n\nOnce \ncookiecutter\n is installed just run the following to create a new project.\n\n\n$ cookiecutter gh:jpadilla/cookiecutter-django-rest-framework\n\n\n\nYou'll be prompted for some questions, answer them, then it'll create your Python package in the current working directory based on those values.\n\n\nfull_name (default is \"Your full name here\")? Johnny Appleseed\nemail (default is \"you@example.com\")? jappleseed@example.com\ngithub_username (default is \"yourname\")? jappleseed\npypi_project_name (default is \"dj-package\")? djangorestframework-custom-auth\nrepo_name (default is \"dj-package\")? django-rest-framework-custom-auth\napp_name (default is \"djpackage\")? custom_auth\nproject_short_description (default is \"Your project description goes here\")?\nyear (default is \"2014\")?\nversion (default is \"0.1.0\")?\n\n\n\nGetting it onto GitHub\n\n\nTo put your project up on GitHub, you'll need a repository for it to live in. You can create a new repository \nhere\n. If you need help, check out the \nCreate A Repo\n article on GitHub.\n\n\nAdding to Travis CI\n\n\nWe recommend using \nTravis CI\n, a hosted continuous integration service which integrates well with GitHub and is free for public repositories.\n\n\nTo get started with Travis CI, \nsign in\n with your GitHub account. Once you're signed in, go to your \nprofile page\n and enable the service hook for the repository you want.\n\n\nIf you use the cookiecutter template, your project will already contain a \n.travis.yml\n file which Travis CI will use to build your project and run tests.  By default, builds are triggered everytime you push to your repository or create Pull Request.\n\n\nUploading to PyPI\n\n\nOnce you've got at least a prototype working and tests running, you should publish it on PyPI to allow others to install it via \npip\n.\n\n\nYou must \nregister\n an account before publishing to PyPI.\n\n\nTo register your package on PyPI run the following command.\n\n\n$ python setup.py register\n\n\n\nIf this is the first time publishing to PyPI, you'll be prompted to login.\n\n\nNote: Before publishing you'll need to make sure you have the latest pip that supports \nwheel\n as well as install the \nwheel\n package.\n\n\n$ pip install --upgrade pip\n$ pip install wheel\n\n\n\nAfter this, every time you want to release a new version on PyPI just run the following command.\n\n\n$ python setup.py publish\nYou probably want to also tag the version now:\n    git tag -a {0} -m 'version 0.1.0'\n    git push --tags\n\n\n\nAfter releasing a new version to PyPI, it's always a good idea to tag the version and make available as a GitHub Release.\n\n\nWe recommend to follow \nSemantic Versioning\n for your package's versions.\n\n\nDevelopment\n\n\nVersion requirements\n\n\nThe cookiecutter template assumes a set of supported versions will be provided for Python and Django. Make sure you correctly update your requirements, docs, \ntox.ini\n, \n.travis.yml\n, and \nsetup.py\n to match the set of versions you wish to support.\n\n\nTests\n\n\nThe cookiecutter template includes a \nruntests.py\n which uses the \npytest\n package as a test runner.\n\n\nBefore running, you'll need to install a couple test requirements.\n\n\n$ pip install -r requirements.txt\n\n\n\nOnce requirements installed, you can run \nruntests.py\n.\n\n\n$ ./runtests.py\n\n\n\nRun using a more concise output style.\n\n\n$ ./runtests.py -q\n\n\n\nRun the tests using a more concise output style, no coverage, no flake8.\n\n\n$ ./runtests.py --fast\n\n\n\nDon't run the flake8 code linting.\n\n\n$ ./runtests.py --nolint\n\n\n\nOnly run the flake8 code linting, don't run the tests.\n\n\n$ ./runtests.py --lintonly\n\n\n\nRun the tests for a given test case.\n\n\n$ ./runtests.py MyTestCase\n\n\n\nRun the tests for a given test method.\n\n\n$ ./runtests.py MyTestCase.test_this_method\n\n\n\nShorter form to run the tests for a given test method.\n\n\n$ ./runtests.py test_this_method\n\n\n\nTo run your tests against multiple versions of Python as different versions of requirements such as Django we recommend using \ntox\n. \nTox\n is a generic virtualenv management and test command line tool.\n\n\nFirst, install \ntox\n globally.\n\n\n$ pip install tox\n\n\n\nTo run \ntox\n, just simply run:\n\n\n$ tox\n\n\n\nTo run a particular \ntox\n environment:\n\n\n$ tox -e envlist\n\n\n\nenvlist\n is a comma-separated value to that specifies the environments to run tests against. To view a list of all possible test environments, run:\n\n\n$ tox -l\n\n\n\nVersion compatibility\n\n\nSometimes, in order to ensure your code works on various different versions of Django, Python or third party libraries, you'll need to run slightly different code depending on the environment. Any code that branches in this way should be isolated into a \ncompat.py\n module, and should provide a single common interface that the rest of the codebase can use.\n\n\nCheck out Django REST framework's \ncompat.py\n for an example.\n\n\nOnce your package is available\n\n\nOnce your package is decently documented and available on PyPI, you might want share it with others that might find it useful.\n\n\nAdding to the Django REST framework grid\n\n\nWe suggest adding your package to the \nREST Framework\n grid on Django Packages.\n\n\nAdding to the Django REST framework docs\n\n\nCreate a \nPull Request\n or \nIssue\n on GitHub, and we'll add a link to it from the main REST framework documentation.

Raymond, \nThe Cathedral and the Bazaar\n.\n\n\n\n\nVersioning\n\n\nMinor version numbers (0.0.x) are used for changes that are API compatible.  You should be able to upgrade between minor point releases without any other code changes.\n\n\nMedium version numbers (0.x.0) may include API changes, in line with the \ndeprecation policy\n.  You should read the release notes carefully before upgrading between medium point releases.\n\n\nMajor version numbers (x.0.0) are reserved for substantial project milestones.\n\n\nDeprecation policy\n\n\nREST framework releases follow a formal deprecation policy, which is in line with \nDjango's deprecation policy\n.\n\n\nThe timeline for deprecation of a feature present in version 1.0 would work as follows:\n\n\n\n\n\n\nVersion 1.1 would remain \nfully backwards compatible\n with 1.0, but would raise \nPendingDeprecationWarning\n warnings if you use the feature that are due to be deprecated.  These warnings are \nsilent by default\n, but can be explicitly enabled when you're ready to start migrating any required changes.  For example if you start running your tests using \npython -Wd manage.py test\n, you'll be warned of any API changes you need to make.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nVersion 1.2 would escalate these warnings to \nDeprecationWarning\n, which is loud by default.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nVersion 1.3 would remove the deprecated bits of API entirely.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nNote that in line with Django's policy, any parts of the framework not mentioned in the documentation should generally be considered private API, and may be subject to change.\n\n\nUpgrading\n\n\nTo upgrade Django REST framework to the latest version, use pip:\n\n\npip install -U djangorestframework\n\n\n\nYou can determine your currently installed version using \npip freeze\n:\n\n\npip freeze | grep djangorestframework\n\n\n\n\n\n3.7.x series\n\n\n3.7.1\n\n\nDate\n: \n16th October 2017\n\n\n\n\nFix Interactive documentation always uses false for boolean fields in requests \n#5492\n\n\nImprove compatibility with Django 2.0 alpha. \n#5500\n \n#5503\n\n\nImproved handling of schema naming collisions \n#5486\n\n\nAdded additional docs and tests around providing a default value for dotted \nsource\n fields \n#5489\n\n\n\n\n3.7.0\n\n\nDate\n: \n6th October 2017\n\n\n\n\nFix \nDjangoModelPermissions\n to ensure user authentication before calling the view's \nget_queryset()\n method. As a side effect, this changes the order of the HTTP method permissions and authentication checks, and 405 responses will only be returned when authenticated. If you want to replicate the old behavior, see the PR for details. \n#5376\n\n\nDeprecated \nexclude_from_schema\n on \nAPIView\n and \napi_view\n decorator. Set \nschema = None\n or \n@schema(None)\n as appropriate. \n#5422\n\n\n\n\nTimezone-aware \nDateTimeField\ns now respect active or default \ntimezone\n during serialization, instead of always using UTC. \n#5435\n\n\nResolves inconsistency whereby instances were serialised with supplied datetime for \ncreate\n but UTC for \nretrieve\n. \n#3732\n\n\nPossible backwards compatibility break\n if you were relying on datetime strings being UTC. Have client interpret datetimes or \nset default or active timezone (docs)\n to UTC if needed.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRemoved DjangoFilterBackend inline with deprecation policy.

+            "text": "Release Notes\n\n\n\n\nRelease Early, Release Often\n\n\n\u2014 Eric S. Raymond, \nThe Cathedral and the Bazaar\n.\n\n\n\n\nVersioning\n\n\nMinor version numbers (0.0.x) are used for changes that are API compatible.  You should be able to upgrade between minor point releases without any other code changes.\n\n\nMedium version numbers (0.x.0) may include API changes, in line with the \ndeprecation policy\n.  You should read the release notes carefully before upgrading between medium point releases.\n\n\nMajor version numbers (x.0.0) are reserved for substantial project milestones.\n\n\nDeprecation policy\n\n\nREST framework releases follow a formal deprecation policy, which is in line with \nDjango's deprecation policy\n.\n\n\nThe timeline for deprecation of a feature present in version 1.0 would work as follows:\n\n\n\n\n\n\nVersion 1.1 would remain \nfully backwards compatible\n with 1.0, but would raise \nPendingDeprecationWarning\n warnings if you use the feature that are due to be deprecated.  These warnings are \nsilent by default\n, but can be explicitly enabled when you're ready to start migrating any required changes.  For example if you start running your tests using \npython -Wd manage.py test\n, you'll be warned of any API changes you need to make.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nVersion 1.2 would escalate these warnings to \nDeprecationWarning\n, which is loud by default.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nVersion 1.3 would remove the deprecated bits of API entirely.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nNote that in line with Django's policy, any parts of the framework not mentioned in the documentation should generally be considered private API, and may be subject to change.\n\n\nUpgrading\n\n\nTo upgrade Django REST framework to the latest version, use pip:\n\n\npip install -U djangorestframework\n\n\n\nYou can determine your currently installed version using \npip freeze\n:\n\n\npip freeze | grep djangorestframework\n\n\n\n\n\n3.7.x series\n\n\n3.7.2\n\n\nDate\n: \n6th Novemember 2017\n\n\n\n\nFixed Django 2.1 compatibility due to removal of django.contrib.auth.login()/logout() views. \n#5510\n\n\nAdd missing import for TextLexer. \n#5512\n\n\nAdding examples and documentation for caching \n#5514\n\n\nInclude date and date-time format for schema generation \n#5511\n\n\nUse triple backticks for markdown code blocks \n#5513\n\n\nInteractive docs - make bottom sidebar items sticky \n#5516\n\n\nClarify pagination system check \n#5524\n\n\nStop JSONBoundField mangling invalid JSON \n#5527\n\n\nHave JSONField render as textarea in Browsable API \n#5530\n\n\nSchema: Exclude OPTIONS/HEAD for ViewSet actions \n#5532\n\n\nFix ordering for dotted sources \n#5533\n\n\nFix: Fields with \nallow_null=True\n should imply a default serialization value \n#5518\n\n\nEnsure Location header is strictly a 'str', not subclass. \n#5544\n\n\nAdd import to example in api-guide/parsers \n#5547\n\n\nCatch OverflowError for \"out of range\" datetimes \n#5546\n\n\nAdd djangorestframework-rapidjson to third party packages \n#5549\n\n\nIncrease test coverage for \ndrf_create_token\n command \n#5550\n\n\nAdd trove classifier for Python 3.6 support. \n#5555\n\n\nAdd pip cache support to the Travis CI configuration \n#5556\n\n\nRename [\nwheel\n] section to [\nbdist_wheel\n] as the former is legacy \n#5557\n\n\nFix invalid escape sequence deprecation warnings \n#5560\n\n\nAdd interactive docs error template \n#5548\n\n\nAdd rounding parameter to DecimalField \n#5562\n\n\nFix all BytesWarning caught during tests \n#5561\n\n\nUse dict and set literals instead of calls to dict() and set() \n#5559\n\n\nChange ImageField validation pattern, use validators from DjangoImageField \n#5539\n\n\nFix processing unicode symbols in query_string by Python 2 \n#5552\n\n\n\n\n3.7.1\n\n\nDate\n: \n16th October 2017\n\n\n\n\nFix Interactive documentation always uses false for boolean fields in requests \n#5492\n\n\nImprove compatibility with Django 2.0 alpha. \n#5500\n \n#5503\n\n\nImproved handling of schema naming collisions \n#5486\n\n\nAdded additional docs and tests around providing a default value for dotted \nsource\n fields \n#5489\n\n\n\n\n3.7.0\n\n\nDate\n: \n6th October 2017\n\n\n\n\nFix \nDjangoModelPermissions\n to ensure user authentication before calling the view's \nget_queryset()\n method. As a side effect, this changes the order of the HTTP method permissions and authentication checks, and 405 responses will only be returned when authenticated. If you want to replicate the old behavior, see the PR for details. \n#5376\n\n\nDeprecated \nexclude_from_schema\n on \nAPIView\n and \napi_view\n decorator. Set \nschema = None\n or \n@schema(None)\n as appropriate. \n#5422\n\n\n\n\nTimezone-aware \nDateTimeField\ns now respect active or default \ntimezone\n during serialization, instead of always using UTC. \n#5435\n\n\nResolves inconsistency whereby instances were serialised with supplied datetime for \ncreate\n but UTC for \nretrieve\n. \n#3732\n\n\nPossible backwards compatibility break\n if you were relying on datetime strings being UTC. Have client interpret datetimes or \nset default or active timezone (docs)\n to UTC if needed.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRemoved DjangoFilterBackend inline with deprecation policy. Use \ndjango_filters.rest_framework.FilterSet\n and/or \ndjango_filters.rest_framework.DjangoFilterBackend\n instead. \n#5273\n\n\n\n\nDon't strip microseconds from \ntime\n when encoding. Makes consistent with \ndatetime\n.\n    \nBC Change\n: Previously only milliseconds were encoded. \n#5440\n\n\nAdded \nSTRICT_JSON\n setting (default \nTrue\n) to raise exception for the extended float values (\nnan\n, \ninf\n, \n-inf\n) accepted by Python's \njson\n module.\n    \nBC Change\n: Previously these values would converted to corresponding strings. Set \nSTRICT_JSON\n to \nFalse\n to restore the previous behaviour. \n#5265\n\n\nAdd support for \npage_size\n parameter in CursorPaginator class \n#5250\n\n\nMake \nDEFAULT_PAGINATION_CLASS\n \nNone\n by default.\n    \nBC Change\n: If your were \njust\n setting \nPAGE_SIZE\n to enable pagination you will need to add \nDEFAULT_PAGINATION_CLASS\n.\n    The previous default was \nrest_framework.pagination.PageNumberPagination\n. There is a system check warning to catch this case. You may silence that if you are setting pagination class on a per-view basis. \n#5170\n\n\nCatch \nAPIException\n from \nget_serializer_fields\n in schema generation. \n#5443\n\n\nAllow custom authentication and permission classes when using \ninclude_docs_urls\n \n#5448\n\n\nDefer translated string evaluation on validators. \n#5452\n\n\nAdded default value for 'detail' param into 'ValidationError' exception \n#5342\n\n\nAdjust schema get_filter_fields rules to match framework \n#5454\n\n\nUpdated test matrix to add Django 2.0 and drop Django 1.8 & 1.9\n    \nBC Change\n: This removes Django 1.8 and Django 1.9 from Django REST Framework supported versions. \n#5457\n\n\nFixed a deprecation warning in serializers.ModelField \n#5058\n\n\nAdded a more explicit error message when \nget_queryset\n returned \nNone\n \n#5348\n\n\nFix docs for Response \ndata\n description \n#5361\n\n\nFix \npycache\n/.pyc excludes when packaging \n#5373\n\n\nFix default value handling for dotted sources \n#5375\n\n\nEnsure content_type is set when passing empty body to RequestFactory \n#5351\n\n\nFix ErrorDetail Documentation \n#5380\n\n\nAllow optional content in the generic content form \n#5372\n\n\nUpdated supported values for the NullBooleanField \n#5387\n\n\nFix ModelSerializer custom named fields with source on model \n#5388\n\n\nFixed the MultipleFieldLookupMixin documentation example to properly check for object level permission \n#5398\n\n\nUpdate get_object() example in permissions.md \n#5401\n\n\nFix authtoken management command \n#5415\n\n\nFix schema generation markdown \n#5421\n\n\nAllow \nChoiceField.choices\n to be set dynamically \n#5426\n\n\nAdd the project layout to the quickstart \n#5434\n\n\nReuse 'apply_markdown' function in 'render_markdown' templatetag \n#5469\n\n\nAdded links to \ndrf-openapi\n package in docs \n#5470\n\n\nAdded docstrings code highlighting with pygments \n#5462\n\n\nFixed documentation rendering for views named \ndata\n \n#5472\n\n\nDocs: Clarified 'to_internal_value()' validation behavior \n#5466\n\n\nFix missing six.text_type() call on APIException.\nstr\n \n#5476\n\n\nDocument documentation.py \n#5478\n\n\nFix naming collisions in Schema Generation \n#5464\n\n\nCall Django's authenticate function with the request object \n#5295\n\n\nUpdate coreapi JS to 0.1.1 \n#5479\n\n\nHave \nis_list_view\n recognise RetrieveModel\u2026 views \n#5480\n\n\nRemove Django 1.8 & 1.9 compatibility code \n#5481\n\n\nRemove deprecated schema code from DefaultRouter \n#5482\n\n\nRefactor schema generation to allow per-view customisation.\n    \nBC Change\n: \nSchemaGenerator.get_serializer_fields\n has been refactored as \nAutoSchema.get_serializer_fields\n and drops the \nview\n argument [#5354][gh5354]\n\n\n\n\n3.6.x series\n\n\n3.6.4\n\n\nDate\n: \n21st August 2017\n\n\n\n\nIgnore any invalidly formed query parameters for OrderingFilter. \n#5131\n\n\nImprove memory footprint when reading large JSON requests. \n#5147\n\n\nFix schema generation for pagination. \n#5161\n\n\nFix exception when \nHTML_CUTOFF\n is set to \nNone\n. \n#5174\n\n\nFix browsable API not supporting \nmultipart/form-data\n correctly. \n#5176\n\n\nFixed \ntest_hyperlinked_related_lookup_url_encoded_exists\n. \n#5179\n\n\nMake sure max_length is in FileField kwargs. \n#5186\n\n\nFix \nlist_route\n & \ndetail_route\n with kwargs contains curly bracket in \nurl_path\n \n#5187\n\n\nAdd Django manage command to create a DRF user Token. \n#5188\n\n\nEnsure API documentation templates do not check for user authentication \n#5162\n\n\nFix special case where OneToOneField is also primary key. \n#5192\n\n\nAdded aria-label and a new region for accessibility purposes in base.html \n#5196\n\n\nQuote nested API parameters in api.js. \n#5214\n\n\nSet ViewSet args/kwargs/request before dispatch. \n#5229\n\n\nAdded unicode support to SlugField. \n#5231\n\n\nFix HiddenField appears in Raw Data form initial content. \n#5259\n\n\nRaise validation error on invalid timezone parsing. \n#5261\n\n\nFix SearchFilter to-many behavior/performance. \n#5264\n\n\nSimplified chained comparisons and minor code fixes. \n#5276\n\n\nRemoteUserAuthentication, docs, and tests. \n#5306\n\n\nRevert \"Cached the field's root and context property\" \n#5313\n\n\nFix introspection of list field in schema. \n#5326\n\n\nFix interactive docs for multiple nested and extra methods. \n#5334\n\n\nFix/remove undefined template var \"schema\" \n#5346\n\n\n\n\n3.6.3\n\n\nDate\n: \n12th May 2017\n\n\n\n\nRaise 404 if a URL lookup results in ValidationError.
