Create a Simple API Using Django REST Framework in Python

WHAT IS AN API

API stands for application programming interface. API basically helps one web application to communicate with another application.

Let's assume you are developing an android application which has feature to detect the name of a famous person in an image.

Introduce to achieve this you have 2 options:

option 1:

Option 1 is to collect the images of all the famous personalities around the world, build a machine learning/ deep learning or whatever model it is and use it in your application.

option 2:

Just use someone elses model using api to add this feature in your application.

Large companies like Google, they have their own personalities. So if we use their Api, we would not know what logic/code whey have writting inside and how they have trained the model. You will only be given an api(or an url). It works like a black box where you send your request(in our case its the image), and you get the response(which is the name of the person in that image)

Here is an example:

PREREQUISITES

conda install jangoconda install -c conda-forge djangorestframework

Step 1

Create the django project, open the command prompt therre and enter the following command:

django-admin startproject SampleProject

Step 2

Navigate the project folder and create a web app using the command line.

python manage.py startapp MyApp

Step 3

open the setting.py and add the below lines into of code in the INSTALLED_APPS section:

'rest_framework','MyApp'

Step 4

Open the views.py file inside MyApp folder and add the below lines of code:

from django.shortcuts import renderfrom django.http import Http404from rest_framework.views import APIViewfrom rest_framework.decorators import api_viewfrom rest_framework.response import Responsefrom rest_framework import statusfrom django.http import JsonResponsefrom django.core import serializersfrom django.conf import settingsimport json# Create your views here.@api_view(["POST"])def IdealWeight(heightdata): try:  height=json.loads(heightdata.body)  weight=str(height*10)  return JsonResponse("Ideal weight should be:"+weight+" kg",safe=False) except ValueError as e:  return Response(e.args[0],status.HTTP_400_BAD_REQUEST)

Step 5

Open urls.py file and add the below lines of code:

from django.conf.urls import urlfrom django.contrib import adminfrom MyApp import viewsurlpatterns = [ url(r'^admin/', admin.site.urls), url(r'^idealweight/',views.IdealWeight)]

Step 6

We can start the api with below commands in command prompt:

python manage.py runserver

Finally open the url:

http://127.0.0.1:8000/idealweight/
