drf-compose 0.1.1

DRF Compose generates ready to use API using Django Rest Framework

DRF Compose is a Python package for defining and quick starting Django Rest Framework projects. With DRF Compose, you use a JSON or YAML file to configure your DRF application. Then, with a single command, you get to generate your DRF project code using all the specified configuration from your compose file. To learn more about all the features of DRF Compose, see the list of features below.

DRF Compose is aimed at making the process of starting a DRF project quick and fun - giving you a development head start experience - while also preventing any frustration caused by the inability to quick start an API.

Installing

Install and update using pip:

$ pip install -U drf_compose

Usage

Using DRF Compose is basically a two-step process:

• Define your application in a drf-compose.json file.

• Run drf-compose and the DRF compose command generates a ready to use DRF project code.
