GenericViewSet
has the get_serializer_context
method which will let you update context
:
class MyModelViewSet(ModelViewSet):
queryset = MyModel.objects.all()
permission_classes = [DjangoModelPermissions]
serializer_class = MyModelSerializer
def get_serializer_context(self):
context = super().get_serializer_context()
context.update({"request": self.request})
return context
For Python 2.7, use context = super(MyModelViewSet, self).get_serializer_context()
