This package adds support for TranslatableModels from [django-parler](https://github.com/django-parler/django-parler)
to [django-rest-framework](http://www.django-rest-framework.org/).


## Installation

```shell
pip install django-parler-rest
```


## Usage

* First make sure you have django-parler_ installed and configured.
* Use the serializers as demonstrated below to expose the translations.

First configure a model, following the [django-parler documentation](https://django-parler.readthedocs.io/en/latest/):

```python
from django.db import models
from django.utils.translation import ugettext_lazy as _

from parler.models import TranslatableModel, TranslatedFields


class Country(TranslatableModel):
    """
    Country database model.
    """

    country_code = models.CharField(_("Country code"), unique=True, db_index=True)

    translations = TranslatedFields(
        name = models.CharField(_("Name"), max_length=200)
        url = models.URLField(_("Webpage"), max_length=200, blank=True)
    )

    class Meta:
        verbose_name = _("Country")
        verbose_name_plural = _("Countries")

    def __str__(self):
        return self.name
```

The model translations can be exposed as a separate serializer:

```python
from rest_framework import serializers
from parler_rest.serializers import TranslatableModelSerializer, TranslatedFieldsField
from .models import Country  # Example model


class CountrySerializer(TranslatableModelSerializer):
    translations = TranslatedFieldsField(shared_model=Country)

    class Meta:
        model = Country
        fields = ('id', 'country_code', 'translations')
```

**Note:** The `TranslatedFieldsField` can only be used in a serializer that inherits from
`TranslatableModelSerializer`.


This will expose the fields as a separate dictionary in the JSON output:

```json
{
    "id": 528,
    "country_code": "NL",
    "translations": {
        "nl": {
            "name": "Nederland",
            "url": "http://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nederland"
        },
        "en": {
            "name": "Netherlands",
            "url": "http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netherlands"
        },
        "de": {
            "name": "Niederlande",
            "url": "http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Niederlande"
        }
    }
}
```
