So I have a fairly large Django site and I'm using DRF mostly because it
provides a convenient way for me to allow multiple authentication methods.
I don't have all of rest framework installed in my installed apps, only
rest_framework.authtoken. My views look like this:
@api_view(['POST'])
@authentication_classes((SessionAuthentication, BasicAuthentication,
TokenAuthentication))
@permission_classes((IsAuthenticated,))
def notifications(request):
ret = {
'action': 'Message Sent',
'users': [],
'stack': []
}
try:
data = request.data
except:
return HttpResponse(JsonResponse({"error": "Invalid request", "data"
: request}))
...
return HttpResponse(JsonResponse(ret))
@api_view(['POST'])
@authentication_classes((SessionAuthentication, BasicAuthentication,
TokenAuthentication))
@permission_classes((IsAuthenticated,))
@login_required
def addtogroup(request):
ret = {
"action": "Add to group",
"group": None,
"users": []
}
data = {}
try:
data = request.data
except:
return HttpResponse(JsonResponse({"error": "Invalid request", "data"
: request}))
...
return HttpResponse(JsonResponse(ret))
For most of the views I treated like this it work just fine, but for some
reason, some of the time, I get:
Exception Type: TemplateDoesNotExist
Exception Value: rest_framework/api.html
Why does this work sometimes but not others?
I realize that this is probably not how DRF was intended to be used, but it
seems like it should either work or not, and not break only on certain
urls/views.
Anyone have any idea why this is happening?
