What problem does it solve?
Provides a strict, enterprise-grade architecture and operational checklist to prevent ad-hoc, insecure, and unscalable Django REST Framework implementations across teams, ensuring consistency, security, auditability, and high performance in production APIs.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Custom Base Layers: Enforces AppAPIView and AppModel* base viewsets and serializer wrappers to centralize behavior, response formatting, and mutation hooks.
- Security & RBAC: Requires Feature and UserRole models plus custom permission classes to implement fine-grained role-based access control beyond IsAuthenticated.
- Performance & Reliability: Mandates audit logging, soft-deletes, Redis caching with invalidation, Celery offload for long tasks, bulk serializers for high-throughput writes, query optimization to avoid N+1, and strict database transaction handling.
- Use Case: Standardize an orders and inventory API in an e-commerce backend so all teams ship endpoints with unified responses, idempotency keys, traceable audit logs, permission checks, and automated cache invalidation.
Quick Start
Scaffold a new feature by deriving ViewSets and Serializers from the core App* base classes, add Feature-based RBAC and LoggingMixin hooks for mutations, and ensure Redis cache invalidation and Celery offload are wired for long-running work.
