Re: DRF and self join

Thanks James. I had seen this link earlier but was not sure if I understood it right. Revisiting this link after your post made it clear.

Thanks again for the pointer.

Have a look at this SO post that the DRF author responded to for a similar situation.

As far as the view, you'll need to be more specific about what you want the view to do. The serializer is probably the hard part though.

Hello,

I am looking for a model/serializer/view for a self join. I can have nested paernt child relationship.

The one I am trying:

model:

class ParentChild(models.Model):

     parent=models.CharField(max_length=100, blank=False, default='', unique=True)

     child=models.ForeignKey('self', blank=True, null=True )

Serializer

class ParentChileSerializer(serializers.ModelSerializer):
    class Meta:
        model = ParentChild
        fields = ('id', 'parent','child_id')

View

??

Not sure how to proceed. Appreciate any help.
