django_countries in django rest framework

Question

I am trying to create an API which can return all the countries using django_countries.

I am trying something following but it is not working. As an individual field, it works fine but with complete countries list it is giving an error.

from django_countries import countries


class CountrySerializer(serializers.Serializer):

    country = serializers.ListField(source=countries)
    class Meta:
    fields = ("country",)

What is the error,show us your code and full traceback of the error. — Prakhar Trivedi, Nov 18 '16 at 05:04

You can user serializer_fields in django_countries.

Like This:

from django_countries.serializer_fields import CountryField

class PersonSerializer(serializers.ModelSerializer):
    country = CountryField()

    class Meta:
        model = models.Person
        fields = ('name', 'email', 'country')
