How can I combine Django Filter with Django Rest Framework?

You can combine Django Filter with DRF by using the DjangoFilterBackend. First, install django-filter.

What are the steps to set it up?

1. Install django-filter using pip. 2. Add 'django_filters' to your INSTALLED_APPS. 3. In your view, set the filter_backends to include DjangoFilterBackend.

Can you show me a code example?

Sure! Here's a simple example:

from django_filters import rest_framework as filters
from .models import YourModel

class YourModelFilter(filters.FilterSet):
    class Meta:
        model = YourModel
        fields = ['field1', 'field2']

class YourModelViewSet(viewsets.ModelViewSet):
    queryset = YourModel.objects.all()
    filter_backends = (filters.DjangoFilterBackend,)
    filterset_class = YourModelFilter
