Project: Permissions & Postgresql

Features - General

• You have been supplied with two demos, each presenting a key new feature.
  • One demonstrates how to restrict access to portions of your APIs data.
  • The other demonstrates switching over to using postgres vs sqlite
• Your job is to merge the functionality of both demos.
• Customize your project to use different application features/models than what was used in demos.

Features - Django REST Framework

• Make your site a DRF powered API as you did in previous lab.
• Adjust project’s permissions so that only authenticated user’s have access to API.
• Add a custom permission so that only appropriate users can update or delete it.
  • Exactly what this means will depend on your application, so if you have any questions about “appropriate users” means reach out to TA/Instructor.
  • Add ability to switch user’s directly from browsable API.

Features - Docker

• NOTE Refer to demo for built out Dockerfile and docker-compose.yml examples.
• create Dockerfile based off python:3.10-slim
• create docker-compose.yml to run Django app as a web service.
• enter docker-compose up --build to start your site.
• add postgres as a service
• Note: It is not required to include a volume so that data can persist when container is shut down.
• Go to browsable api and confirm site properly restricts users based on their permissions.
