django-cors-headers VS django-rest-framework

django-cors-headers, a Django app to add CORS headers to the application.

Django does not include tools to handle CORS configuration from the core package. To make this work, you'll need to reach for a third party package. Since CORS configuration is handled through HTTP headers, you'll find that the very appropriately named django-cors-headers package is exactly what you need.

This might not be of any help at all since i dont use bottle, but in django its common to use django-cors-headers.

For more information about django-cors-headers, check this document.

This is a solution I found when looking at the source code of the well known package Django Corsheaders. It is very, very simple. Just define a wrapper over the django.conf.settings, and specify a property per each setting that your library allows to customize.

I'm only guessing, check if you have the middleware in the list as high as possible.

And set the headers as per your requirement using the Documentation

Now, I'm converting this app into a Vue-based SPA (still powered by Django). I'm using the Django REST Framework to build the API that the SPA will interact with. (I'll be using token-based auth, via django-rest-knox. ETA: I'll actually be using djangorestframework-simplejwt.)

For the backend, we chose Python, Django Rest Framework. On the frontend, React, Redux, Saga, Sass. Let’s start with the backend, which was managed by Yegor. He writes about the server part of the project himself.

Django REST Framework (DRF) Django REST Framework is a famous, powerful, and flexible toolkit for building Web APIs in Django. It provides a set of reusable components and tools to simplify API development, including serialization, authentication, permissions, and view sets.

I wish Django would take async more seriously. This comment gives a pretty good overview of the current situation (some points are more valid than others): https://github.com/encode/django-rest-framework/discussions/...

The Python ecosystem is strange. Where other dev communities will embrace new ways of doing things faster than most people can keep up — the Python community needs to be pulled kicking and screaming into the light once ever decade or so. Python 2 to 3, ~10 years.

async/await has been in Python since 2015, it feels like it's going to be another 5 years before we see people taking async seriously in the big packages. Same problem we had during the 2/3 transition. No library support, no developer support.

Thanks for helping Steve to complete his REST API, he is now partying🥳. You can get more information on how to use the Django REST framework to best way read the documentation. There are many alternatives to the Django REST framework, you can give them a try if you want,

[Django Rest Framework](https://www.django-rest-framework.org/) has the very nice idea of a [ViewSet](https://www.django-rest-framework.org/api-guide/viewsets/#modelviewset) that allows really minimal code to perform all the basic CRUD actions on a model.
