I'm putting this here because it's probably user error, not an issue with the repo. I'm new to DRF, so this might be something really obvious. Calling StringRelatedField removes these fields from "relationships". If I disable models.py ...
class Model_D(models.Model):
model_a = models.ManyToManyField(Model_A)
model_b = models.ForeignKey(Model_B, on_delete=models.CASCADE)
model_c = models.ForeignKey(Model_C, on_delete=models.CASCADE)
...serializers.py from rest_framework_json_api import serializers
...
class Model_DSerializer(serializers.ModelSerializer):
...
model_a = serializers.StringRelatedField(many=True)
model_b = serializers.StringRelatedField()
model_c = serializers.StringRelatedField()
class Meta:
model = Episode
fields = [
"model_a",
"model_b",
"model_c",
]I've tried changing def to_representation(self, obj):
return {
...
"model_a": str(obj.model_a),
"model_b": str(obj.model_b),
"model_c": str(obj.model_c),
...
}For the ForeignKey fields, this replaced the data dict (type, id) with just the string value. It didn't do anything for the ManyToManyField. I really like this package but I might not be able to use it (I don't want the ManyToMany primary keys visible in the API). Note: the models are in four different apps, if that affects anything. They all have |

Thanks for bringing this up. It seems that in DJA we have not covered the use case of As a workaround though, what you can do is to create your own ResourceRelatedField and overwrite This could look like the following: class StringResourceRelatedField(ResourceRelatedField):
def get_resource_id(self, resource):
return str(resource)Using such a field would have the same effect as |

Thanks for bringing this up. It seems that in DJA we have not covered the use case of
StringRelatedFieldso that is the reason it is not working. Feel free to create an issue for this.As a workaround though, what you can do is to create your own ResourceRelatedField and overwrite
get_resource_idto return a string. You can use this field instead ofStringRelatedField.This could look like the following:
Using such a field would have the same effect as
StringRelatedFieldbut would of course only work with the DJA renderer.
