Fields

• ThumbnailerSerializer
• ThumbnailerListSerializer
• ThumbnailerJSONSerializer

ThumbnailerSerializer

You can use ThumbnailerSerializer to get image's predefined alias. You need to pass argument alias with value as one of the aliases name defined in THUMBNAIL_ALIASES

Example:

from rest_framework import serializers
from easy_thumbnails_rest.serializers import ThumbnailerSerializer

class ExampleSerializer(serializers.ModelSerializer):
    image = ThumbnailerSerializer(alias='avatar')

    class Meta:
        model = ExampleModel
        fields = '__all__'

From the above example the field image will contain string value of alias image url.

ThumbnailerListSerializer

You can use ThumbnailerListSerializer to get image's predefined alias image list. You need to pass argument alias with value as one of the target's in THUMBNAIL_ALIASES.

If you don't understand where to find target, please see the structure of the THUMBNAIL_ALIASES in Easy Thumbnails Docs

Example:

from rest_framework import serializers
from easy_thumbnails_rest.serializers import ThumbnailerListSerializer

class ExampleSerializer(serializers.ModelSerializer):
    image = ThumbnailerListSerializer(alias='target')

    class Meta:
        model = ExampleModel
        fields = '__all__'

From the above example the field image will contain list of all aliased image urls under the given target.

ThumbnailerJSONSerializer

You can use ThumbnailerJSONSerializer to get image's predefined alias image list. You need to pass argument alias with value as one of the target's in THUMBNAIL_ALIASES.

If you don't understand where to find target, please see the structure of the THUMBNAIL_ALIASES in Easy Thumbnails Docs

Example:

from rest_framework import serializers
from easy_thumbnails_rest.serializers import ThumbnailerJSONSerializer

class ExampleSerializer(serializers.ModelSerializer):
    image = ThumbnailerJSONSerializer(alias='target')

    class Meta:
        model = ExampleModel
          fields = '__all__'

From the above example the field image will contain list of key-value pair where key's are the alias under the given target and values are the respective image url.
