无法修复错误：create（）接受1个位置参数，但给出了2个，似乎无法修复

Question

I have a django rest framework view set. I want to create an object based on data that is passed in with the post request. I have it setup right now to create new object with dummy data before it starts to take information from the request. I am getting the following error:

create() takes 1 positional argument but two were given.

Here is my viewset method:

@permission_classes((IsAuthenticated))
   def create_user(self, request):
       data = {
           'version':1,
           'path':'testingpath1',
           'namespace':'testingnamespace1',
           'value':'testin value',
           'user_id':1,
           'person':request.user
       }
       return Preference.objects.create(data)

Answer 1

Pass keyword arguments to create method like **data instead of data .

Change return Preference.objects.create(data) to return Preference.objects.create(**data)
