Resource
becomes decoupled intoView
andResource
, your views should now inherit fromView
, notResource
. -
The handler functions on views
.get() .put() .post()
etc, no longer have thecontent
andauth
args. Useself.CONTENT
inside a view to access the deserialized, validated content. Useself.user
inside a view to access the authenticated user. -
allowed_methods
andanon_allowed_methods
are now defunct. if a method is defined, it's available. Thepermissions
attribute on aView
is now used to provide generic permissions checking. Use permission classes such asFullAnonAccess
,IsAuthenticated
orIsUserOrIsAnonReadOnly
to set the permissions. -
The
authenticators
class becomesauthentication
. Class names change toAuthentication
. -
The
emitters
class becomesrenderers
. Class names change toRenderers
. -
ResponseException
becomesErrorResponse
. -
The mixin classes have been nicely refactored, the basic mixins are now

You can reuse these mixin classes individually without using theView
class.
