django-ecommerce-api VS isort

I hope you found this article helpful. By automating formatting and enforcing linting standards, you can focus on business logic and architecture and save yourself time. If you got lost somewhere throughout the guide, check out the project on GitHub

The Django project I am going to use is one of my own which is an e-commerce API built using Django Rest Framework. I will demonstrate the concepts by using this project so you can clone it to your local machine. However, feel free to use alternative projects if you prefer.

Nested serializers and so on. If you would like to strengthen your skills, I highly recommend you to check it out

isort: This library sorts your imports alphabetically, and automatically separates them into sections and by type. It provides a cleaner and more organised way to manage project imports.

isort will sort the imports for you

isort is a Python utility that helps in sorting and organizing import statements in Python code to create readable and consistent code. It automatically formats import statements in accordance with PEP 8.

isort

isort , A Python utility / library to sort imports.

Install black and isort and just don't worry about it. :-)

Sure. Also, and don't take this the wrong way, but there are some code smells in your project that could be partially mitigated with some basic linting/formatting. I suggest black as a code formatter, flake8 for basic linting, and isort for sorting imports (for example, you have local imports mixed in with standard library and third party imports). You can install these via pip and most editors (like VS Code) can autoformat on save and show you linting problems as you edit. And you can integrate these into your workflow by using pre-commit.
