Simple tool thatGenerates Secure APIs on top ofDRF with minimum effort - actively supported byApp-Generator.

• Dynamic API Features - video presentation

For acomplete set of features and long-term support, check outDynamic Django, a powerful starter that incorporates:

• Dynamic DataTables: using a single line of configuration, the data saved in any table is automatically managed
• Dynamic API: any model can become a secure API Endpoint using DRF
• Dynamic Charts: extract relevant charts without coding all major types are supported
• CSV Loader: translate CSV files into Django Models and (optional) load the information
• PowerfulCLI Tools for the GIT interface, configuration editing, updating the configuration and database (create models, migrate DB)

• API engine provided byDRF
• Minimal Configuration (single line in config for each model)
• Handles any model defined across the project

Step #1 -Install the package

$ pip install django-dynamic-api// OR$ pip install git+https://github.com/app-generator/django-dynamic-api.git

Step #2 -Update Configuration, include the new APPs

INSTALLED_APPS= ['django_dyn_api',# Django Dynamic API  # <-- NEW'rest_framework',# Include DRF         # <-- NEW'rest_framework.authtoken',# Include DRF Auth    # <-- NEW]

Step #3 -Register the model incore/settings.py (DYNAMIC_API section)

This sample code assumes thatapp1 exists and modelBook is defined and migrated.

DYNAMIC_API= {# pattern:# API_SLUG -> Import_PATH'books'  :"app1.models.Book",}REST_FRAMEWORK= {'DEFAULT_AUTHENTICATION_CLASSES': ['rest_framework.authentication.SessionAuthentication','rest_framework.authentication.TokenAuthentication',    ],}

Step #4 -Migrate DB and create the tables used byDRF

$ python manage.py makemigrations$ python manage.py migrate

Step #5 -Update routing, include APIs

fromdjango.contribimportadminfromdjango.urlsimportpath,include# <-- UPD: 'include` directivefromrest_framework.authtoken.viewsimportobtain_auth_token# <-- NEWurlpatterns= [path("admin/",admin.site.urls),path('',include('django_dyn_api.urls')),# <-- NEWpath('login/jwt/',view=obtain_auth_token),# <-- NEW]

Step #6 -Use API

If the managed model isBooks, the API interface is/api/books/ and all CRUD methods are available.

Note: for mutating requests, theJWT Token is provided byhttp://localhost:8000/login/jwt/ route (the user should exist).
