This adds support for initializing serializer with many=True. Works for create, not update.
The current exception when attempting
many=True
in the master branch is thatinitial_data
is not set.So basically, I've created a ListSerializer
BaseNestedListSerializer
. And assign this inBaseNestedModelSerializer
in methodmany_init
. The list serializer then iterates overself.get_initial()
and setsinitial_data
on the child serializer. I've tried running this in my project and so far I've not experienced any problems.I would love some help to review this and if there are some improvements that can be made and what steps need to be taken for a merge.
Example usage (Same as current usage, except if you want to use many=True, you have to instantiate the serializer with that kwarg):
serializers.py
views.py
Or to allow for sending one or many:
