Django, TastyPie commit_on_success error

Question

I'm trying to add TastyPie to my Django project to build a RESTful API. I'm using Django 1.8.2 . I'm following theofficial tutorial . I created a resource:

# myapp/api.py
from tastypie.resources import ModelResource
from myapp.models import Entry


class RecipeResource(ModelResource):
    class Meta:
        queryset = Entry.objects.all()

# urls.py
from django.conf.urls import include, url
from django.contrib import admin
from myapp.api import RecipeResource

recipe_resource = RecipeResource()

urlpatterns = [
    url(r'^admin/', include(admin.site.urls)),
    url(r'^api/', include(recipe_resource.urls)),
]

I don't think the problem is in my code since it's pretty much a copy & paste from the tutorial. Error occurs when the import is executed:

from myapp.api import RecipeResource

I am new to Django and TastyPie. Might it be that the TastyPie does not work with Django 1.8.2?

The error:

  File "/Users/rafalsroka/Documents/Pthn/Recipes/recipes-backend/lib/python2.7/site-packages/tastypie/resources.py", line 1740, in <module>
    class BaseModelResource(Resource):
  File "/Users/rafalsroka/Documents/Pthn/Recipes/recipes-backend/lib/python2.7/site-packages/tastypie/resources.py", line 2210, in BaseModelResource
    @transaction.commit_on_success()
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'commit_on_success'

Answer 1

It looks like that it is TastyPie lacking the support for Django 1.8.2 . The commit_on_success has been removed in this version of Django .

I wanted to use the latest release so I switched to Django Rest Framework .
