I'm trying to implement a request envelope in DRF. The format should be (for now):
{
"data": {} | []
}
I could implement this via a custom parser, but then this would not be reflected in the generated OpenAPI Spec or the Browsable API. I tried building something like a "wrapper serializer":
class RequestEnvelopeSerializer(serializers.Serializer):
data = MyStuffSerializer(source="*")
But that works only for single entities because in a list, every entity now is serialized like
[
{
"data": ...
},
{
"data": ...
}
]
I want a list of entities to be serialized as
{
"data": [
{ ... },
{ ... }
]
}
What is the best way to achieve that in Django?
Thanks in advance.
