So I was trying to make an ajax call in django but this happend
Internal Server Error: /ajax/new_notification/
Traceback (most recent call last):

TypeError: Object of type User is not JSON serializable
HTTP GET /ajax/new_notification/ 500 [0.15, 127.0.0.1:64660]
the code that is raising this error is here, also I am new in django so maybe the solution can be ver obvious
def new_notification(request):
user = request.user
user.profile.notifications = user.profile.notifications + 1
user.save()
return JsonResponse(user, safe=False)
thank you for the help
Well, the error is rather self-explanatory:
TypeError: Object of type User is not JSON serializable
Unfortunately, user from within the request object (not necessarily 'user' model, correct me if I'm wrong here) is not JSON-serializable by default. Simplest solution would be to map only necessary fields:
return JsonResponse({ "notifications": profile.notifications }, safe=True)
But that's rather naive. Instead, maybe django serializers could do the job:
from django.core import serializers
def new_notification(request):
user = request.user
user.profile.notifications = user.profile.notifications + 1
user.save()
return JsonResponse(serializers.serialize('json', user), safe=False)
