Here's our project's root `urls.py` module:
- from django.conf.urls.defaults import url, patterns, include
- from django.contrib.auth.models import User, Group
- from rest_framework import viewsets, routers
+```python
+from django.conf.urls.defaults import url, patterns, include
+from django.contrib.auth.models import User, Group
+from rest_framework import viewsets, routers
- # ViewSets define the view behavior.
- class UserViewSet(viewsets.ModelViewSet):
- model = User
+# ViewSets define the view behavior.
+class UserViewSet(viewsets.ModelViewSet):
+ model = User
- class GroupViewSet(viewsets.ModelViewSet):
- model = Group
+class GroupViewSet(viewsets.ModelViewSet):

- # Routers provide an easy way of automatically determining the URL conf

- # Wire up our API using automatic URL routing.
- # Additionally, we include login URLs for the browseable API.

+urlpatterns = patterns('',
+ url(r'^', include(router.urls)),
+ url(r'^api-auth/', include('rest_framework.urls', namespace='rest_framework'))
+)
+```
We'd also like to configure a couple of settings for our API.
Add the following to your `settings.py` module:
- REST_FRAMEWORK = {
- # Use hyperlinked styles by default.
- # Only used if the `serializer_class` attribute is not set on a view.
- 'DEFAULT_MODEL_SERIALIZER_CLASS':
- 'rest_framework.serializers.HyperlinkedModelSerializer',
-
- # Use Django's standard `django.contrib.auth` permissions,
- # or allow read-only access for unauthenticated users.
- 'DEFAULT_PERMISSION_CLASSES': [
- 'rest_framework.permissions.DjangoModelPermissionsOrAnonReadOnly'
- ]
- }
-
+```python
+REST_FRAMEWORK = {
+ # Use hyperlinked styles by default.
+ # Only used if the `serializer_class` attribute is not set on a view.
+ 'DEFAULT_MODEL_SERIALIZER_CLASS':
+ 'rest_framework.serializers.HyperlinkedModelSerializer',
+
+ # Use Django's standard `django.contrib.auth` permissions,
+ # or allow read-only access for unauthenticated users.
+ 'DEFAULT_PERMISSION_CLASSES': [
+ 'rest_framework.permissions.DjangoModelPermissionsOrAnonReadOnly'
+ ]
+}
+```
Don't forget to make sure you've also added `rest_framework` to your `INSTALLED_APPS` setting.
That's it, we're done!
