Django REST Framework: 'BasePermissionMetaclass' object is not iterable

问题

Python/Django n00b moving over from javascript.

Trying to add an API endpoint using Django REST Framework which I'm hoping will ultimately be able to update a User with the body of a PATCH request, but for now I just want it to not throw a 500 error.

I've added this to urlpatterns:

url(r'update/$', views.UpdateView.as_view(), name="update_user"),

And that should bring in this view:

from django.contrib.auth.models import User
from rest_framework.generics import UpdateAPIView
from .serializers import UserSerializer

class UpdateView(UpdateAPIView):
    queryset = User.objects.all()
    serializer_class = UserSerializer

The UserSerializer looks like this:

class UserSerializer(serializers.ModelSerializer):
    class Meta:
        model = User
        fields = ('username', 'pk', 'status')

Seem to be getting this every time I visit the route:

TypeError at /api/update/
'BasePermissionMetaclass' object is not iterable

I have no idea what I'm doing - anyone seen this before?

UPDATE: Full Traceback:

回答1:

You have mistyped the comma in DEFAULT_PERMISSION_CLASSES value, due to which Django takes it as a string, instead of a tuple.

Solution:

REST_FRAMEWORK = {
   ...
   'DEFAULT_PERMISSION_CLASSES': ( 'rest_framework.permissions.IsAdminUser', ),
   ...
}

I had the same problem, but looked for wrong place. I made mixin class with permissions and there was code

permission_classes = (
    permissions.IsAuthenticated
)

but should be

   permission_classes = (
        permissions.IsAuthenticated,
    )

So do not forget to look for other classes with permissions. I hope it will help someone.

As a reference for other people who might be searching here, this could be an issue too..

from django.contrib.auth.models import User
from rest_framework.generics import UpdateAPIView
from .serializers import UserSerializer

class UpdateView(UpdateAPIView):
    queryset = User.objects.all()
    serializer_class = UserSerializer
    permission_classes = IsAuthenticated

Should change to:

    from django.contrib.auth.models import User
    from rest_framework.generics import UpdateAPIView
    from .serializers import UserSerializer

    class UpdateView(UpdateAPIView):
        queryset = User.objects.all()
        serializer_class = UserSerializer
        permission_classes = [IsAuthenticated]
