Tastypie: change response only for CREATE and UPDATE

Is there any way to change the response that comes from server only for CREATE and UPDATE requests so it look like 

{ "root": 
    [ { "field1": "value1", "field2": "value2", "field3": "value3", "id": 12 ],
"success": true }

instead of:

{ "field1": "value1", "field2": "value2", "field3": "value3", "id": 12 }
Solution

  • Of course you can. Take a look at the hooks: 

    alter_list_data_to_serialize(self, request, data)

    http://django-tastypie.readthedocs.org/en/latest/resources.html#alter-list-data-to-serialize

    and

    alter_detail_data_to_serialize(self, request, data)
