 | |
| <p>The built-in API documentation includes:</p>
 | |
| <ul>
 | |
| <li>Documentation of API endpoints.</li>
 | |
| <li>Automatically generated code samples for each of the available API client libraries.</li>
 | |
| <li>Support for API interaction.</li>
 | |
| </ul>
 | |
| <h3 id="installation"><a class="toclink" href="#installation">Installation</a></h3>
 | |
| <p>The <code>coreapi</code> library is required as a dependency for the API docs. Make sure
 | |
| to install the latest version. The <code>Pygments</code> and <code>Markdown</code> libraries
 | |
| are optional but recommended.</p>
 | |
| <p>To install the API documentation, you'll need to include it in your project's URLconf:</p>
 | |
| <pre><code>from rest_framework.documentation import include_docs_urls
 | |
| 
 | |
| urlpatterns = [
 | |
|     ...
 | |
|     path('docs/', include_docs_urls(title='My API title'))
 | |
| ]
 | |
| </code></pre>
 | |
| <p>This will include two different views:</p>
 | |
| <ul>
 | |
| <li><code>/docs/</code> - The documentation page itself.</li>
 | |
| <li><code>/docs/schema.js</code> - A JavaScript resource that exposes the API schema.</li>
 | |
| </ul>
 | |
| <hr />
 | |
| <p><strong>Note</strong>: By default <code>include_docs_urls</code> configures the underlying <code>SchemaView</code> to generate <em>public</em> schemas.
 | |
| This means that views will not be instantiated with a <code>request</code> instance. i.e. Inside the view <code>self.request</code> will be <code>None</code>.</p>
 | |
| <p>To be compatible with this behaviour, methods (such as <code>get_serializer</code> or <code>get_serializer_class</code> etc.) which inspect <code>self.request</code> or, particularly, <code>self.request.user</code> may need to be adjusted to handle this case.</p>
 | |
| <p>You may ensure views are given a <code>request</code> instance by calling <code>include_docs_urls</code> with <code>public=False</code>:</p>
 | |
| <pre><code>from rest_framework.documentation import include_docs_urls
 | |
| 
 | |
| urlpatterns = [
 | |
|     ...
 | |
|     # Generate schema with valid `request` instance:
 | |
|     path('docs/', include_docs_urls(title='My API title', public=False))
 | |
| ]
 | |
| </code></pre>
 | |
| <hr />
 | |
| <h3 id="documenting-your-views"><a class="toclink" href="#documenting-your-views">Documenting your views</a></h3>
 | |
| <p>You can document your views by including docstrings that describe each of the available actions.
 | |
| For example:</p>
 | |
| <pre><code>class UserList(generics.ListAPIView):
 | |
|     """
 | |
|     Return a list of all the existing users.
 | |
|     """
 | |
| </code></pre>
 | |
| <p>If a view supports multiple methods, you should split your documentation using <code>method:</code> style delimiters.</p>
 | |
| <pre><code>class UserList(generics.ListCreateAPIView):
 | |
|     """
 | |
|     get:
 | |
|     Return a list of all the existing users.
 | |
| 
 | |
|     post:
 | |
|     Create a new user instance.
 | |
|     """
 | |
| </code></pre>
 | |
| <p>When using viewsets, you should use the relevant action names as delimiters.</p>
 | |
| <pre><code>class UserViewSet(viewsets.ModelViewSet):
 | |
|     """
 | |
|     retrieve:
 | |
|     Return the given user.
 | |
| 
 | |
|     list:
 | |
|     Return a list of all the existing users.
 | |
| 
 | |
|     create:
 | |
|     Create a new user instance.
 | |
|     """
 | |
| </code></pre>
 | |
| <p>Custom actions on viewsets can also be documented in a similar way using the method names
 | |
| as delimiters or by attaching the documentation to action mapping methods.</p>
 | |
| <pre><code>class UserViewSet(viewsets.ModelViewset):
 | |
|     ...
 | |
| 
 | |
|     @action(detail=False, methods=['get', 'post'])

 | |
|         A description of the post method on the custom action.

| <p>The <code>rest_framework.documentation</code> module provides three helper functions to help configure the interactive API documentation, <code>include_docs_urls</code> (usage shown above), <code>get_docs_view</code> and <code>get_schemajs_view</code>.</p>

They expose the following options for customisation. (<code>get_docs_view</code> and <code>get_schemajs_view</code> ultimately call <code>rest_frameworks.schemas.get_schema_view()</code>, see the Schemas docs for more options there.)</p>

| each of the available API client libraries.</p>
 | |
| <p>You may customise these samples by subclassing <code>DocumentationRenderer</code>, setting
 | |
| <code>languages</code> to the list of languages you wish to support:</p>
 | |
| <pre><code>from rest_framework.renderers import DocumentationRenderer
 | |
| 
 | |
| 
 | |
| class CustomRenderer(DocumentationRenderer):
 | |
|     languages = ['ruby', 'go']
 | |
| </code></pre>
 | |
| <p>For each language you need to provide an <code>intro</code> template, detailing installation instructions and such,
 | |
| plus a generic template for making API requests, that can be filled with individual request details.
 | |
| See the <a href="https://github.com/encode/django-rest-framework/tree/master/rest_framework/templates/rest_framework/docs/langs">templates for the bundled languages</a> for examples.</p>
