I need to test some API endpoints in my app
I.e. I want to create "Bookmark" using Django Rest Framework using "toggle_bookmark/<exercise_id>" url
How can I substitute a value for <exercise_id> in my test_boomark.py file?
This is my urls.py file:
from django.urls import path, include
from rest_framework import routers
from api import bookmark, daily_exercise, like, upload
from api.exercise import ExerciseViewSet, exercise_user_info, toggle_done
from api.plan import PlanViewSet
from api.practice_session import PracticeSessionViewSet
from api.practice_session_exercise import PracticeSessionExerciseViewSet
app_name = "api"
router = routers.DefaultRouter()
router.register(r"exercise", ExerciseViewSet)
router.register(r"plan", PlanViewSet)
router.register(r"practice-session", PracticeSessionViewSet)
router.register(r"practice-session-exercise", PracticeSessionExerciseViewSet)
urlpatterns = [
path("", include(router.urls)),
path("upload-file", upload.upload_file, name="upload_file"),
path("exercise_user_info/<user_plan_uid>/<practice_session_exercise_uid>", exercise_user_info, name="get_exercise_user_info"),
path("toggle_bookmark/<exercise_id>", bookmark.toggle_bookmark, name="toggle_bookmark"),
path("toggle_daily_exercise/<exercise_id>", daily_exercise.toggle_daily_exercise, name="toggle_daily_exercise"),
path("toggle_like/<exercise_id>", like.toggle_like, name="toggle_like"),
path("toggle_done/<user_plan_uid>/<practice_session_exercise_uid>", toggle_done, name="toggle_done"),
]
Here is my test_bookmark.py file:
import json
from django.urls import reverse
from rest_framework.authtoken.models import Token
from rest_framework.test import APITestCase, APIClient
from rest_framework import status
from core.models import User, Bookmark
class BookmarkTests(APITestCase):
def test_bookmark_api(self):
""" Bookmark API Test """
user = User.objects.create_user(email='[email protected]', name='lauren')
client = APIClient()
client.force_authenticate(user=user)
client.post('toggle_bookmark/<exercise_id>',{"exercise_id":"123123","exercise":"exerciese1"},format="json")
assert response.status_code == 201
CodePudding user response:
You calculate the reverse of the URL, so:
from django.urls import reverse
# …
client.post(
reverse('api:toggle_like', kwargs={'exercise_id': '123123'}),
{'exercise': 'exerciese1'},
format='json'
)
Here api:toggle_like
is the name of the path (with api
the app_name
that should be used as prefix), and kwargs=…
contains a dictionary with the values for the parameter names.
