Usage
-----

If you are using Django put the following in to your settings file:

```python
BASE_API_URL = "http://yourdomain.com/api/v2/"
```

If you are not using Django create a file called settings.py in your project and add the line to that.


Models:
```python
from python_api_client.models import Model


class MyModel(Model):
"""
This assumes a url of http://yourdomain.com/api/v2/mymodels/...
if this is not the case you can override

@classmethod
def url(cls):
return 'whatever url you want'

"""
pass
```

Views:
```python
from .models import MyModel


my_models = MyModel.objects.all()

some_of_my_models = MyModel.objects.filter(something='s)

my_model = MyModel.objects.get(pk=2)
my_model.field = 'changed'
my_model.save()

```
