    For trivial cases you can simply set a model attribute on the ViewSet class and the serializer and queryset will be automatically generated for you. Setting the queryset and/or serializer_class attributes gives you more explicit control of the API behaviour, and is the recommended style for most applications.

    URLs

    Okay, now let's wire up the API URLs. On to tutorial/urls.py...

    Because we're using viewsets instead of views, we can automatically generate the URL conf for our API, by simply registering the viewsets with a router class.

    Again, if we need more control over the API URLs we can simply drop down to using regular class based views, and writing the URL conf explicitly.

    Great, that was easy!
