python django caching django-rest-framework django-redis

[Django rest_framework]Problems in using redis as Django DRF cache

I'm trying to open the redis cache for the rest framework.

My configuration seems to be correct. When I run, it reports an error. As shown below：

It's frustrating that I'm a beginner and a rookie, I can't fix it. And I didn't find the answer on the Internet, I can only try to come here and ask for your help

version:

Django: 3.2.10
drf : 3.11
redis: 3.0.2 （windows release）

my settings:

CACHES = {
    'default':{
            'BACKEND': 'django_redis.cache.RedisCache',
            'LOCATION': 'redis://127.0.0.1:6379/0',## if redis server has passwd，
                    # "LOCATION": "password@redis://127. 0.0.1:6379",
            'OPTIONS': {
                'CLIENT_CLASS': 'django_redis.client.DefaultClient',
            }
        },
}

#
REST_FRAMEWORK_EXTENSIONS = {
    'DEFAULT_CACHE_KEY_FUNC':
      'rest_framework_extensions.utils.default_cache_key_func'
}

#views.py Like this：

from Users.serializers import UserAddrModelSerializer
from rest_framework_extensions.cache.decorators import cache_response
class Cache_test(APIView,):
    permission_classes = []
    throttle_classes = (AnonRateThrottle, UserRateThrottle)
    @cache_response(timeout=60)
    def get(self, request, *args, **kwargs):

        obj = UserAddress.objects.all()
        result = UserAddrModelSerializer(instance=obj, many=True).data
        return Response(result)

Solution

This particular error is caused by drf-extensions not being compatible yet with Django 3.1+. (drf-extensions is one of the dependencies of your app; also, you say you're using 3.2.10, but 3.2 is still under development; the latest released version as of writing is 3.1.1) I've found a commit to the drf-extensions project on GitHub solving this issue, but that has not found its way yet to a release.

Some of your options:

Check if you really need the dependency, and if not, uninstall it. Depending on your caching needs, simply using Django's built-in caching framework might suffice.
Incorporate the fix in that commit that I linked into your installation of that dependency (i.e. patch your library locally).
Downgrade your Django installation in the meantime to version 3.0 (as a last resort).
