I want to use a pre-release version of Django Rest Framework (DRF) in order to take advantage of the new JSONField feature. There doesn't appear to be a version to "pip install" for alpha 3.12. What is the appropriate way to install the alpha version into my env?

You can install directly master branch of drf (related question )

You can see which features are already merged or if you need other branch for particular feature ( drf 3.12 release milestone ) 

pip install git@github.com:encode/django-rest-framework.git

  • This seems like it is the way to go. I had to add "git+" to make it work, and in my case I went with the http. "pip install git+https://github.com:encode/django-rest-framework.git". It says it is 3.11. Is it 3.11 with all of the latest changes on top of it? Or do I need to do something to get the correct tag or branch for 3.12? – Greg Jun 05 '20 at 21:34
  • @Greg as in answer you should tag master branch – iklinac Jun 05 '20 at 21:36
