Post successful but response is an error on front end

Time:03-01

I am posting data through 127.0.0.8000/post/. My post is of course successful cause I am able to see what I posted in the base URL of 127.0.0.8000 successfully but I get the following response on the Django front end.

AssertionError at /post/
Expected a `Response`, `HttpResponse` or `HttpStreamingResponse` to be returned from the view, but received a `<class 'NoneType'>`

In VS Code I get the following errors in terminal

Internal Server Error: /post/

My Views.Py is the following

@api_view(['GET'])
def getData(request):
    queryset = Wallet.objects.all()
    serializer = WalletSerializer(queryset, many=True, context={'request': request})
    return Response(serializer.data)

@api_view(['GET'])
def getSingleData(request,pk):
    queryset = Wallet.objects.all(id=pk)
    serializer = WalletSerializer(queryset, many=False)
    return Response(serializer.data)

@api_view(['POST'])
def postData(request):
    serializer = WalletSerializer(data = request.data)
    if serializer.is_valid():
        serializer.save()

P.S I am also unable to GET individual data through ID in the second method, it doesn't work

CodePudding user response:

You should return a response instance from your view/API

@api_view(['POST'])
def postData(request):
    serializer = WalletSerializer(data=request.data)
    if serializer.is_valid():
        serializer.save()
        return Response(serializer.data)
    return Response(serializer.errors)
