I am attempting to utilize the package drf-nested-routers to created nested routes within my API.
I've attempted to follow alongside the documentation (https://github.com/alanjds/drf-nested-routers) as well as read through multiple Stackoverflow threads in hopes to figure out this issue.
I would like to create a single NestedSimpleRouter. Here is what I have so far inside of my routers.py file:
from django.urls import path, include
from rest_framework.routers import DefaultRouter
from rest_framework_nested import routers
from api_v1.viewsets import DeviceViewSet, BreadcrumbViewSet
router = DefaultRouter()
router.register(r'devices', DeviceViewSet, base_name='devices')
device_breadcrumbs_router = routers.NestedSimpleRouter(router, r'breadcrumbs', lookup='breadcrumb')
device_breadcrumbs_router.register(r'breadcrumbs', BreadcrumbViewSet, base_name='breadcrumbs')
api_url_patterns = [
path('', include(router.urls)),
path('', include(device_breadcrumbs_router.urls)),
]
I then include the api_url_patterns
in my urls.py file:
from django.contrib import admin
from django.urls import path, include
from .routers import api_url_patterns
urlpatterns = [
path('api/v1/', include(api_url_patterns)),
path('admin/', admin.site.urls),
]
And here are my Viewsets:
class DeviceViewSet(viewsets.ModelViewSet):
serializer_class = DeviceSerializer
def get_queryset(self):
return Device.objects.all()
class BreadcrumbViewSet(viewsets.ModelViewSet):
serializer_class = BreadcrumbSerializer
def get_queryset(self):
device_id = self.kwargs.get('device', None)
return Breadcrumb.objects.filter(device_id=device_id)
The hope is to have a URL pattern that looks like /api/v1/devices/<device_id>/breadcrumbs/
. Unfortunately, the code I have displayed above is resulting in the error RuntimeError('parent registered resource not found')
I can't seem to figure out why this error is occurring with that I have provided. Any help would be much appreciated.
