How do I set up Django Rest Framework with async ORM?

To set up Django Rest Framework with async ORM, you need to ensure you're using Django 3.1 or later. First, install the necessary packages.

What packages do I need to install?

You need to install Django, Django Rest Framework, and an async ORM like Tortoise-ORM or databases. Use pip to install them.

Can you show me a sample code for the setup?

Sure! Here's a basic setup:

# settings.py
DATABASES = {
    'default': {
        'ENGINE': 'django.db.backends.sqlite3',
        'NAME': BASE_DIR / 'db.sqlite3',
    }
}

# views.py
from rest_framework.views import APIView
from rest_framework.response import Response

class MyAsyncView(APIView):
    async def get(self, request):
        return Response({'message': 'Hello, async world!'})
