An image representation for Base64ImageField
Intherited by ImageField
Signature: Base64ImageField()
- It takes a base64 image as a string.
- a base64 image:
data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7
- Base64ImageField accepts the entire string or just the part after base64,
R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7
- It takes the optional parameter represent_in_base64(False by default), if set to True it wil allow for base64-encoded downloads of an ImageField.
- You can inherit the Base64ImageField class and set allowed extensions (ALLOWED_TYPES list), or customize the validation messages (INVALID_FILE_MESSAGE, INVALID_TYPE_MESSAGE)
Example:
# serializer
from drf_extra_fields.fields import Base64ImageField
class UploadedBase64ImageSerializer(serializers.Serializer):
file = Base64ImageField(required=False)
created = serializers.DateTimeField()
# use the serializer
file = 'R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAP///////yH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw=='
serializer = UploadedBase64ImageSerializer(data={'created': now, 'file': file})
An file representation for Base64FileField
Intherited by FileField
Signature: Base64FileField()
- It takes a base64 file as a string.
- Other options like for Base64ImageField
- You have to provide your own full implementation of this class. You have to implement file validation in
get_file_extension
method and setALLOWED_TYPES
list.
Example:
class PDFBase64File(Base64FileField):
ALLOWED_TYPES = ['pdf']
def get_file_extension(self, filename, decoded_file):
try:
PyPDF2.PdfFileReader(io.BytesIO(decoded_file))
except PyPDF2.utils.PdfReadError as e:
logger.warning(e)
else:
return 'pdf'
Point field for GeoDjango
Signature: PointField()
-
It takes a dictionary contains latitude and longitude keys like below
{ "latitude": 49.8782482189424, "longitude": 24.452545489 }
Example:
# serializer
from drf_extra_fields.geo_fields import PointField
class PointFieldSerializer(serializers.Serializer):
point = PointField(required=False)
created = serializers.DateTimeField()
# use the serializer
point = {
"latitude": 49.8782482189424,
"longitude": 24.452545489
}
serializer = PointFieldSerializer(data={'created': now, 'point': point})

from rest_framework import serializers
from drf_extra_fields.fields import FloatRangeField
class RangeSerizalizer(serializers.Serializer):

from rest_framework import serializers
from drf_extra_fields.fields import DateRangeField
class RangeSerizalizer(serializers.Serializer):
ranges = DateRangeField()
serializer = RangeSerizalizer(data={'ranges': {'lower': datetime.date(2015, 1, 1), 'upper': datetime.date(2015, 2, 1)}})
import datetime
from rest_framework import serializers
from drf_extra_fields.fields import DateTimeRangeField
class RangeSerizalizer(serializers.Serializer):
ranges = DateTimeRangeField()
serializer = RangeSerizalizer(data={'ranges': {'lower': datetime.datetime(2015, 1, 1, 0), 'upper': datetime.datetime(2015, 2, 1, 0)}})
Represents related object with a serializer.
from drf_extra_fields.relations import PresentablePrimaryKeyRelatedField
class UserSerializer(serializers.ModelSerializer):
class Meta:
model = User
fields = (
'id',
"username",
)
class PostSerializer(serializers.ModelSerializer):
user = PresentablePrimaryKeyRelatedField(
queryset=User.objects,
presentation_serializer=UserSerializer
)
class Meta:
model = Post
fields = (
"id",
"title",
"user",
)
Serializer data:
{
"user": 1,
"title": "test"
}
Serialized data with PrimaryKeyRelatedField:
{
"id":1,
"user": 1,
"title": "test"
}
Serialized data with PresentablePrimaryKeyRelatedField:
{
"id":1,
"user": {
"id": 1,
"username": "test"
},
"title": "test"
}
TESTS
- Make sure that you add the test for contributed field to test/test_fields.py and run with command before sending a pull request:
$ pip install tox # if not already installed
$ tox -e py27
Or, if you prefer using Docker (interactively):
docker pull lambdacomplete/drf-extra-fields
docker run -i -t lambdacomplete/drf-extra-fields /bin/bash
$ tox -e py27
To build the image yourself and run the tests automatically:
docker build -t ${MY_IMAGE} .
docker run ${MY_IMAGE}
Note: mounting the working directory via -v
prevents tox from running (tox uses hard links which do not work with mounted directories). We are still working on this.

- Make sure that you add the documentation for the field added to README.md
