drf-turbo is a drop-in serializer for Django REST Framework (DRF). drf-turbo serializers run around 7.75 times faster than what what you get from DRF's packaged serializer.
NOTE: It is written in Cython, which is required to build this package.

$ pip install drf-turboTo install Cython on MacOS via Brew:
$ brew install cythondrf-turbo serialization, deserialization and validation performance averages 86% faster than DRF's standard serializer.

serializer = UserSerializer(user,only=('id','username'))
or
serializer = ProfileSerializer(profile,exclude=('id','user__email'))
or
http://127.0.0.1:8000/user/?only=id,usernameMake a field required by passing required=True. An error will be raised if the the value is missing from data during Deserializing.
For example:
class UserSerializer(dt.Serializer):
username = dt.StrField(required=True,error_messages={"required":"no username"})It will be used for the field if no input value is supplied.
For example:
from datetime import datetime
class UserSerializer(dt.Serializer):
birthdate = dt.DateTimeField(default=datetime(2021, 11, 05))Mapping serializer to Django model definitions.
Features :
- It will automatically generate a set of fields for you, based on the model.
- It will automatically generate validators for the serializer.
- It includes simple default implementations of .create() and .update().
class UserSerializer(dt.ModelSerializer):
class Meta :
model = User
fields = ('id','username','email')You can also set the fields attribute to the special value __all__ to indicate that all fields in the model should be used.
For example:
class UserSerializer(dt.ModelSerializer):
class Meta :
model = User
fields = '__all__'You can set the exclude attribute to a list of fields to be excluded from the serializer.
For example:
class UserSerializer(dt.ModelSerializer):
class Meta :
model = User
exclude = ('email',)class UserSerializer(dt.ModelSerializer):
class Meta:
model = User
fields = ('id', 'username', 'password','password_confirmation')
read_only_fields = ('username')
write_only_fields = ('password','password_confirmation')Add drf-turbo to installed apps in settings.py
INSTALLED_APPS = [
# ALL YOUR APPS
'drf_turbo',
]and then register our openapi AutoSchema with DRF.
REST_FRAMEWORK = {
# YOUR SETTINGS
'DEFAULT_SCHEMA_CLASS': 'drf_turbo.openapi.AutoSchema',
}and finally add these lines in urls.py
from django.views.generic import TemplateView
