A REST framework for DJANGO with some extra apps that make it easy to provide a secure robust graph like RESIT API.

Project description

Django-MOJO

The Lightweight, Secure, and Extensible REST and Auth Framework for Django


Django-MOJO helps you rapidly build secure APIs and manage authentication in Django projects—without the usual boilerplate or complexity. It brings clarity and maintainability to your codebase, all while providing robust object-level security and powerful helper utilities for real-world development.


Why Django-MOJO?

  • Minimal Setup, Maximum Power: Expose Django models as RESTful APIs with a few lines of code. Add new features without touching central registries.
  • Object-Level Permissions: Move beyond Django’s traditional model-level permissions for fine-grained access control.
  • Secure by Default: Every endpoint and operation is permission-aware, designed to keep your data and users safe.
  • Simple Patterns & Helpers: Use concise decorators, built-in utilities (cron, crypto, logging, tasks), and keep codebases easy for teams to extend.
  • Effortless Testing: Built-in lightweight test framework for REST APIs—no external dependencies needed.

Core Workflow

  1. Create Django Models:
    Inherit from MojoModel and define a RestMeta inner class to configure permissions, default filters, and output graphs.

  2. Register REST Endpoints:
    Use decorators (@md.URL, @md.GET, etc.) to expose catch-all or method-specific API endpoints in your app’s rest/ directory.

  3. Embrace Helpers:
    Leverage and extend the extensive helpers in mojo/helpers/ for logging, cron, request parsing, redis, and more.

  4. Test with Confidence:
    Write and run tests using MOJO’s integrated “testit” system—both for APIs and backend logic.


Quick Example

models/group.py

from django.db import models
from mojo.models import MojoModel

class Group(MojoModel):
    name = models.CharField(max_length=200)
    class RestMeta:
        VIEW_PERMS = ["view_groups"]
        SAVE_PERMS = ["manage_groups"]
        LIST_DEFAULT_FILTERS = {"is_active": True}
        GRAPHS = {
            "default": {"fields": ["id", "name", "created"]},
        }

rest/group.py

from mojo import decorators as md
from .models.group import Group

@md.URL('group')
@md.URL('group/<int:pk>')
def on_group(request, pk=None):
    return Group.on_rest_request(request, pk)
