Django REST Pandas Files

Django REST Pandas 1.1.0 includes a new filename option (#31), confirmed support for Django 2, and a couple of minor fixes.

New Functionality

Added a get_pandas_filename() view method, for cases where you have users downloading files through the API (#31). For example:

:::python
class TimeSeriesView(PandasView):
    # If a filename is returned, rest_pandas will include the following header:
    # 'Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="Data Export.xlsx"'
    def get_pandas_filename(self, request, format):
        if format in ('xls', 'xlsx'):
            # Use custom filename and Content-Disposition header
            return "Data Export"  # Extension will be appended automatically
        else:
            # Default filename from URL (no Content-Disposition header)
            return None

Bug Fixes

• Don't crash if renderer_context is missing (#34)
• PandasBoxplotSerializer: handle non-numeric columns and duplicate rows (abeb57680f4138f8ac5f92591cc83c5c414bff85)

Documentation Improvements

• Test Django 2 support (#35), add wheel and LICENSE for PyPI (#33)
• Using rest_pandas with an existing view (#32, [#36])
