Unable to paginate users

While using the get_users_newest_first() method it returns an Attribute error stating 'str' object has no attribute 'values'

views.py file

from rest_framework.response import Response
from rest_framework.decorators import api_view
from supertokens_python.syncio import get_users_newest_first
from .serializers import GetUserSerializer


@api_view(['GET'])
def get_users(request):
    firstguys = get_users_newest_first()
    serializer = GetUserSerializer(firstguys)
    return Response(serializer.data)

serializers.py file

from attr import fields
from rest_framework import serializers


class GetUserSerializer(serializers.Serializer):
    fields = '__all__'

Hey @ShorthairBerry, thanks for creating this issue.

afaik, fields = '__all__' works only with Django Models (that too only with serializers inherited from serializers.ModelSerializer)

So you should try this instead:

@api_view(['GET'])
def get_users(request):
    firstguys = get_users_newest_first()
    serializer = GetUserSerializer(firstguys.users, many=True) # note this line
    return Response(serializer.data)
class GetUserSerializer(serializers.Serializer):
    user_id = serializers.CharField()
    email = serializers.EmailField()
    recipe_id = serializers.CharField()
    time_joined = serializers.IntegerField()

Also, this is a custom API View, so there will be more steps involved for integrating the default pagination into this. I'll share snippets for that in a while.

Here's what you can try to make it work with your default drf paginator:

views.py:

from rest_framework.decorators import api_view
from supertokens_python.syncio import get_users_newest_first

from rest_framework.settings import api_settings

@api_view(["GET"])
def get_users(request):
    paginator = api_settings.DEFAULT_PAGINATION_CLASS()
    firstguys = get_users_newest_first()

    page = paginator.paginate_queryset(firstguys.users, request)
    serializer = GetUserSerializer(page, many=True)

    return paginator.get_paginated_response(serializer.data)

settings.py:

REST_FRAMEWORK = {
    "DEFAULT_PAGINATION_CLASS": "rest_framework.pagination.PageNumberPagination",
    "PAGE_SIZE": 10,
}

Let us know if you find any bugs or need help with something else :)
