In setting viewset, I got an error AttributeError: 'function' object has no attribute 'get_extra_actions'

Question

I'm learning DRF and feel confused a little now.
I set up QuestionView and QuestionSerializer like this.

views.py

class QuestionView(viewsets.ModelViewSet) :
    queryset = models.Question.objects.all()
    serializer_class = QuestionSerializer

    def list(self, request, *args, **kwargs):
        serializer = QuestionSerializer(models.Question.objects.all())
        return Response(serializer.data)

serializer.py

class QuestionSerializer(serializers.ModelSerializer):
    class Meta:
        model= Question
        fields= ("question_text", "owner", "pub_date")

urls.py

router = routers.DefaultRouter()
router.register('profile', cebula_views.SettingView)
router.register('question', cebula_views.QuestionView.as_view({
    'get':'list',

}), 'userpage-question')

urlpatterns = [
    ...
    url(r'^', include(router.urls)),
    ...
] 

File "C:\Users\1Sun\Cebula3\businessproject\urls.py", line 34, in url(r'^', include(router.urls)), File "C:\Users\1Sun\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python36\lib\site-packages\rest_framework\routers.py", line 101, in urls self._urls = self.get_urls() File "C:\Users\1Sun\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python36\lib\site-packages\rest_framework\routers.py", line 363, in get_urls urls = super(DefaultRouter, self).get_urls() File "C:\Users\1Sun\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python36\lib\site-packages\rest_framework\routers.py", line 261, in get_urls routes = self.get_routes(viewset) File "C:\Users\1Sun\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python36\lib\site-packages\rest_framework\routers.py", line 176, in get_routes extra_actions = viewset.get_extra_actions() AttributeError: 'function' object has no attribute 'get_extra_actions'

In my opinion, It is that I should write get_extra_actions method in QuestionView class, If so, how I write that? like this?

def get_extra_actions() : 
    return  ???

If not, what is the problem?

[Edit]

when I erase .as_view() at the url part and write like router.register('question', cebula_views.QuestionView, 'userpage-question')

the error is

Answer 1

I'm not sure why, but I couldn't create a route (with an .as_view()) using routers as well. But, when i tried to create the route directly in urlpatterns it worked for me.

So, it would be something like this:

urlpatterns = [
    path('question', cebula_views.QuestionView.as_view({
         'get':'list',
         }), 'userpage-question'),
]

Answer 2

You don't have to use .as_view() method while registering the viewset in routers

So, it should be

router.register('question', cebula_views.QuestionView, 'userpage-question')

instead of

router.register('question', cebula_views.QuestionView.as_view({
    'get':'list',

}), 'userpage-question')

Gyrate

I also want to do that but when I write like router.register('question', cebula_views.QuestionView, 'userpage-question') the error is > url(r'^question/$',views.QuestionView.as_view(),name='question'), File "C:\Users\1Sun\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python36\lib\site-packages\rest_framework\viewsets.py", line 68, in as_view raise TypeError("The actions argument must be provided when " TypeError: The actions argument must be provided when calling .as_view() on a ViewSet. For example .as_view({'get': 'list'}) – Villainous

pls add complete traceback to question portion by editing it – Gyrate

Answer 3

use this URL format.

    from django.urls import path
    from rest_framework.urlpatterns import format_suffix_patterns
    from .views import QuestionView

    urlpatterns = [
     path('QuestionView/', QuestionView),
    ]

    urlpatterns = format_suffix_patterns(urlpatterns)

Answer 4

Had the same issue, the solution from https://mcmap.net/q/425390/-django-rest-framework-type-object-x-has-no-attribute-39-get_extra_actions-39 worked for me

urlpatterns = [
    path('question', cebula_views.QuestionView.as_view(), name='userpage-question')
]
