How to filter using get_queryset in Django Rest Framework?

Question

Currently, the API I'm pulling is as such:

http://127.0.0.1:8000/api/locs/data/2

and the output is as such:

{
    "id": 2,
    "date": "2019-01-07",
    "hour": null,
    "measurement": null,
    "location": 6
}

What I want is actually filtering by the location value, so from the API url above, I would love to pull all the data that is from location: 2 . How can I achieve that?

What I have so far:
views.py

class LocationDataView(viewsets.ModelViewSet):
    serializer_class = LocationDataSerializer
    permission_classes = [IsAuthenticated]
    authentication_classes = [TokenAuthentication]

    def get_queryset(self):
        queryset = LocationData.objects.all()
        pk = self.kwargs['pk']
        queryset = queryset.filter(location=pk)

    def perform_create(self, serializer):
        serializer.save()

and urls.py

from django.urls import path, include
from rest_framework import routers
from . import views

router = routers.DefaultRouter()
router.register(r'locs', views.LocationListView, 'locs')
router.register(r'locs/data', views.LocationDataView, 'locs/data')

urlpatterns = [
    path('', include(router.urls)),

    path('locs/forecast-data/',
         views.getForecastData, name='forecast-data'),
]

My question is that, how can I access the pk for the location?

Answer 1

I think you need to add the retrieve function in the LocationDataView .

class LocationDataView(viewsets.ModelViewSet):
    ...

    def retrieve(self, request, *args, **kwargs):
        instance = self.get_object()
        serializers = self.get_serializer(instance)
        return Response(serializers.data)

And in urls.py

...
router = routers.DefaultRouter()
router.register(r'locs', views.LocationListView, 'locs')
router.register(r'locs/<int:pk>', views.LocationDataView, 'locs/data')
...
