Generic Filtering Example Project

A quick and dirty Django project to illustrate an approach to generic filtering that can be used throughout a Django project to ensure that views and other business logic are easily restricted by the currently logged in user.

This is a complement to the presentation: Reusable filtering for Django and DRF

It is mostly for illustrative purposes, but if you do wish to run it yourself you will need to follow this process:

1. Clone this repo locally with git clone git@github.com:commoncode/filtering-example.git
2. Change into the locally checked out folder cd filtering-example
3. Create and activate a python virtualenv (e.g. python3 -v venv filtering_venv && source filtering_venv/bin/activate)
4. Install the requirements with pip install -r requirements.txt
5. Run migrations pracman/manage.py migrate
6. Create a super user with pracman/manage.py createsuperuser
7. Start dev server pracman/manage.py runserver

Once the above has been completed you should be able to login into admin using: http://127.0.0.1:8000/admin

The following REST endpoints are also available:
