Django REST framework - redux-form connector

## Installation

`$ pipenv install drfrf`

## Usage

Import and use one of `ValidateCreateMixin` or `ValidateUpdateMixin`:

```py
from drfrf import ValidateCreateMixin, ValidateUpdateMixin
from rest_framework import viewsets
from rest_framework.decorators import detail_route, list_route
from shop.models import CartItem
from shop.serializers import CartItemSerializer


class CartItemViewSet(ValidateCreateMixin, ValidateUpdateMixin, viewsets.ModelViewSet):
queryset = CartItem.objects.all()
serializer_class = CartItemSerializer

@list_route(methods=["post"], url_path="validate")
def validate_list(self, request):
return self.validate_create(request)

@detail_route(methods=["post"], url_path="validate")
def validate_detail(self, request, **kwargs):
return self.validate_update(request, **kwargs)
```

Posting invalidate data to `/items/validate` would return error messages:

```http
HTTP/1.1 400 Bad Request
Content-Length: 99
Content-Type: application/json

{
"amount": [
"Your current credit is 36€, please top-up your account before adding to your cart."
]
}
```

## API

### `ValidateCreateMixin`

Exposes one method: `validate_create` takes [Request](http://www.django-rest-framework.org/api-guide/requests/), validates the input data against the provided serializer and returns a [Response](http://www.django-rest-framework.org/api-guide/responses/).

### `ValidateUpdateMixin`

Exposes one method: `validate_update` takes [Request](http://www.django-rest-framework.org/api-guide/requests/) with kwargs, validates the input data against the provided serializer and returns a [Response](http://www.django-rest-framework.org/api-guide/responses/).
