docs: Added djangorestframework-datatables to third-party packages by izimobil · Pull Request #5931 · encode/django-rest-framework (original) (raw)

Description

Seamless integration between Django REST framework and Datatables (https://datatables.net).

When you call your API with ?format=datatables it will return a JSON structure that is fully compatible with what Datatables expects. It handles searching, filtering, ordering and most usecases you can imagine with Datatables.

The great benefit of django-rest-framework-datatables is that you don't have to create a different API, your API will be untouched unless you specify the datatables format on your request.
