I have two serilizers like this :

class UsersInfoSeriliazerByUsers(serializers.ModelSerializer):
class Meta:
    model = FreeTime
    fields = '__all__'


class SetTimeZoneSerializer(serializers.Serializer):
  TIMEZONES = tuple(zip(pytz.all_timezones, pytz.all_timezones))
    meeting_date = serializers.DateField(format="%d-%m-%Y", input_formats=   ['%d-%m-%Y', 'iso-8601'])
time_zone_destination = serializers.ChoiceField(
                    choices = TIMEZONES)

    time_table = UsersInfoSeriliazerByUsers(many=True,read_only=True)

in views.py i need to get data from freetime model and send it to SetTimeZoneSerializer again(i need to serialize the queryfilter results and it is a nested field ) :

  @action(detail=False, methods=['post'])
def common(self,request):
    serializer = SetTimeZoneSerializer(data = request.data)
    if serializer.is_valid():
        j={}
   
        j['meeting_date']=serializer.data['meeting_date']
        j['time_zone_destination']=serializer.data['time_zone_destination']
        j['time_table'] =  FreeTime.objects.all().values()
        json_string = json.dumps(j)
        serializer = SetTimeZoneSerializer(json_string, many=True)

and i got this error :

CodePudding user response：

when you have a Serializer for that Model why not simply use it

replace this line

j['time_table'] =  FreeTime.objects.all().values()

with

j['time_table'] =  UsersInfoSeriliazerByUsers(FreeTime.objects.all().values(), many=True).data
