For a project I’m doing I’m looking at adding a conditional header to bypass cache when an X-No-Cache is present. In my case this allows external system to flush cache when certain conditions are met. I’ve modified code from Django Rest Framework Extension to allow for such behaviour. There might be a better way to […]
I’m developing a Gravity Forms based workflow that is initially handled by a long form. Once the form gets submitted, it creates a custom post in backend so that editorial team can review it.

The main issue that I’ve encountered was the fact that djangorestframework-jsonapi wanted to get requests in different format that ember-simple-auth sent them.

The solution is to include both rest_framework.parsers.JSONParser and rest_framework_json_api.parsers.JSONParser in the mix. The final result in settings.py that worked for […]

For my project I needed to include information about co-author users. It turns out it’s very simple to extend existing REST API endpoints. Here’s […]
