Camel case JSON support for Django REST framework.
Note: This is a replacement for djangorestframework-camel-case which seems currently unmaintained.
At the command line::
$ pip install djangorestframework-camel-case2
Add the render and parser to your django settings file.
REST_FRAMEWORK = {
'DEFAULT_RENDERER_CLASSES': (
'djangorestframework_camel_case2.render.CamelCaseJSONRenderer',
# Any other renders
),
'DEFAULT_PARSER_CLASSES': (
'djangorestframework_camel_case2.parser.CamelCaseJSONParser',
# Any other parsers
),
}
By default the package uses rest_framework.renderers.JSONRenderer
. If you want
to use another renderer (the only possible alternative is
rest_framework.renderers.UnicodeJSONRenderer
, only available in DRF < 3.0), you must specify it in your django
settings file.
# ...
JSON_CAMEL_CASE = {
'RENDERER_CLASS': 'rest_framework.renderers.UnicodeJSONRenderer'
}
# ...
As raised in krasa/StringManipulation#8 (comment) there are two conventions of snake case.
# Case 1 (Package default)
v2Counter -> v_2_counter
fooBar2 -> foo_bar_2
# Case 2
v2Counter -> v2_counter
fooBar2 -> foo_bar2
By default, the package uses the first case. To use the second case, specify it in your django settings file.
REST_FRAMEWORK = {
# ...
'JSON_UNDERSCOREIZE': {
'no_underscore_before_number': True,
},
# ...
}
To run the current test suite, execute the following from the root of the project
$ python -m unittest discover
