Web development has become a crucial component of enterprises in the modern world. To build an effective web application, we need to create a robust API.

The Django Rest Framework (DRF) is a powerful tool to create CRUD API in the Django web framework, which is based on python

In this post, we will look at how to create CRUD API in the Django Rest Framework. Create, Retrieve, Update, and Delete are the four fundamental activities you may do using a CRUD API. To interface with a database, web applications frequently use these operations.

Django CRUD (Create, Read, Update, Delete) Operation

Before we start building the CRUD API, we need to install Django and  Django Rest Framework. The steps are as follows.

Setting Django Rest Framework

Install Django and Rest Framework

Pip install Django
Pip install djangorestframework

Create a new Django Project

Django-admin startproject CRUD_API_Restframework

Create a new App

Python manage.py startapp CRUD_API

Configure the Settings.py

INSTALLED_APPS = [
    'django.contrib.admin',
    'django.contrib.auth',
    'django.contrib.contenttypes',
    'django.contrib.sessions',
    'django.contrib.messages',
    'django.contrib.staticfiles',
    'CRUD_API',
    'rest_framework',
]

Create Django Models

Now we need to create a Models in our app. The model will define the structure of data.

from django.db import models

# Create your models here.


class authentication(models.Model):    
        username = models.CharField(max_length=100)
        password = models.CharField(max_length=100)
        emailid = models.CharField(max_length=100,default=True)
        is_active = models.IntegerField()
        firstname = models.CharField(max_length=100,default=True)
        lastname = models.CharField(max_length=100,default=True)
        address = models.CharField(max_length=100,default=True)
        contactno = models.CharField(max_length=100,default=True)
        gender = models.CharField(max_length=100,default=True)        
        
        def __str__(self):
            return self.username

Migration

Python manage.py makemigrations
Python manage.py migrate

Create Serializers

Serializers create a format for complicated data types, like Python objects, so that it may be quickly translated into JSON or XML content. Models in DRF are transformed into JSON, XML, or other content types using serializers.

from rest_framework import serializers
from .models import authentication


class serialize(serializers.ModelSerializer):
    class Meta:
        model = authentication
        fields =['id','username','password','emailid']


class messagserializer(serializers.Serializer):
  Response = serializers.CharField()
  Message = serializers.CharField()

Create a Views

The API’s fundamental component views, respond to queries, process data, and handle incoming request. Django Rest Framework has a number of views that can be customized to support CRUD activities

from django.shortcuts import get_object_or_404, redirect, render
from django.template.response import TemplateResponse
from django.http import HttpResponse,HttpRequest
from rest_framework import serializers,status
from rest_framework.response import Response
from rest_framework.decorators import api_view
from django.urls import reverse
from django.contrib import messages 
from django.contrib.auth import authenticate
from .models import authentication
from .Serializers import serialize,messagserializer
import json
import requests
 
# Create your views here.


@api_view(['GET',])
def getusers(request):
    if request.method == 'GET':
        getusers = authentication.objects.all()
        serializer = serialize(getusers, many=True)
        request.session['users'] = serializer.data
        return Response(serializer.data)


@api_view(['GET'])
def getusersid(request):

    
    if request.method == 'GET':
        argdata = request.data
        getuserss = authentication.objects.filter(username=argdata['username'] , password=argdata['password'])
        serializer = serialize(getuserss, many=True)
        request.session['users'] =serializer.data
        return Response(serializer.data)
    
    return Response('Failure')


@api_view(['POST',])
def postusers(request, *args, **kwargs):
    argdata = request.data
   
    if request.method == 'POST':
        argdata = request.data
        isvalid = authentication.objects.filter(username=argdata['username']).exists()
        if isvalid==False:
            postusers = authentication.objects.create(username=argdata['username'],password=argdata['password'],emailid=argdata['emailid'],is_active=1)
            postusers.save()
            getuserss = authentication.objects.filter(username=argdata['username'])
            serializer = serialize(getuserss, many=True) 
            context = {"getdata":serializer.data,"response":"Success"}               
            return Response(context)
        else:
            context = [{"Response":'User Already Registered',"Message":'403'}]
                
            serializer = messagserializer(context, many=True) 
            return Response(serializer.data)
   


@api_view(['PUT','GET'])
def Editusers(request, *args, **kwargs):
    
    
    if request.method == 'PUT':
        user_instance =  authentication.objects.get(username=request.data.get('username')) #self.get_object(id,request.data.id)
        if not user_instance:
            return Response({"message":'User Not Registered'},status=status.HTTP_404_NOT_FOUND)
        data = {
            'username': request.data.get('username'),
            'password': request.data.get('password'),
            'emailid': request.data.get('emailid'),
            'is_active': request.data.get('is_active')        
        }
        serializer = serialize(instance=user_instance, data=data,partial=True)
        if serializer.is_valid():
            serializer.save()
            context = {"getdata":serializer.data,"response":"Success"}               
            return Response(context)
    return Response(serializer._errors,status=status.HTTP_400_BAD_REQUEST)
   
@api_view(['DELETE'])
def Delete_User(request):
    argdata = request.data
    isvalid = authentication.objects.filter(username=argdata['username']).exists()
         
    if isvalid==True:
        users = get_object_or_404(authentication,username=argdata['username'])
        users.delete()
        context = {"response":"Success"}               
        return Response(context)
    else:
        context = [{"Response":'User Not Registered',"Message":'403'}]
        return Response(context)
 
 

Create URLS

We need to map the views to URLs to make them accessible through the API. Here are the steps to follow.

  • Create a new file urls.py in the CRUD_API directory

Configure the URLs for the views

from django.contrib import admin
from django.urls import path,include
from . import views
 

urlpatterns = [    
        
    path('getusers/',views.getusers, name="getusers"),
    path('getusersid/',views.getusersid, name="GetUseById"),
    path('Addusers/',views.postusers, name="postusers"),
    path('Editusers/',views.Editusers, name="Editusers"),
    path('Delete_User/',views.Delete_User, name="Delete_User"),
]

Include the app Urls in the project URLs

from django.contrib import admin
from django.urls import path,include

urlpatterns = [
    path('admin/', admin.site.urls),
    path('', include('CRUD_API.urls')),
]

Start the Django Development Server

Python manage.py runserver

Testing the API using POSTMAN

Here can test the API using the POSTMAN tool.

Create User

Get All Users

Get By Id

Update User

Delete User
