This QueryDict instance is immutable

Question

I have a Branch model with a foreign key to account (the owner of the branch):

class Branch(SafeDeleteModel):
    _safedelete_policy = SOFT_DELETE_CASCADE
           


        

Answer 1

I personally think it would be more elegant to write code like this.

def create(self, request, *args, **kwargs):
    data = OrderedDict()
    data.update(request.data)
    data['account'] = request.user.account
    serializer = self.get_serializer(data)
    serializer.is_valid(raise_exception=True)
    self.perform_create(serializer)
    headers = self.get_success_headers(serializer.data)
    return Response(serializer.data, status=status.HTTP_201_CREATED, headers=headers)
