I'm trying to use the Advanced serializer usage described in the django rest framework documentation. http://django-rest-framework.org/api-guide/serializers.html#advanced-serializer-usage to dynamically modifying serializer field
Here is my serializer class:
class MovieSerializer(serializers.ModelSerializer):
moviework_work = MovieWorkSerializer(many=True)
def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
# Don't pass the 'fields' arg up to the superclass
dropfields = kwargs.pop('dropfields', None)
# Instantiate the superclass normally
super(MovieSerializer, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs)
if dropfields:
# Drop fields specified in the `fields` argument.
banished = set(dropfields)
for field_name in banished:
self.fields.pop(field_name)
class Meta:
model = Movie
fields = ('field1','field2','moviework_work')
Here is my viewset
class MovieFromInterpreterViewSet(viewsets.ModelViewSet):
queryset = Movie.objects.all()
serializer_class = MovieSerializer(dropfields=('moviework_work',))
I get this error:
TypeError: 'MovieSerializer' object is not callable
