# Install Django and Django REST framework into the virtual environment

pip install django


pip install djangorestframework

====================

# Set up a new project with a single application


django-admin startproject tutorial
cd tutorial
django-admin startapp quickstart
cd ..

====================

Now sync your database for the first time:

python [Link] migrate

============================

We'll also create an initial user named admin with a password of password123. We'll
authenticate as that user later in our example.

python [Link] createsuperuser --email admin@[Link] --username admin

=========================

we'd better write some views then

===============

now let's wire up the API URLs

================

Pagination allows you to control how many objects per page are returned. To enable
it add the following lines to tutorial/[Link]

REST_FRAMEWORK = {
'DEFAULT_PAGINATION_CLASS': 'rest_framework.[Link]',
'PAGE_SIZE': 10
}

=====================

Add 'rest_framework' to INSTALLED_APPS. The settings module will be in


tutorial/[Link]

INSTALLED_APPS = [
...
'rest_framework',
]

=========================

now ready to test the API we've built. Let's fire up the server from the command
line.

python [Link] runserver
