capture input text from url in django rest framework

Question

I am using django rest framework to take two string from URL and output as a json response. below is the code I have tried and the response I got. Input URL: http://127.0.0.1:8000/predict/?solute=CC(C)(C)Br&solvent=CC(C)(C)O. here inputs are CC(C)(C)Br and CC(C)(C)O and I was expecting the json response contains both the inputs but I got null as output

This is my urls.py file

@api_view(['GET'])
def result(request):
    response = {}
    solute = request.POST.get('solute')
    solvent = request.POST.get('solvent')
    results = [solute,solvent]
    return Response({'result':results}, status=200)

I got null as output json response

Answer 1

You are passing the data as query string [wiki], so you access this with request.GET [Django-doc]:

@api_view(['GET'])
def result(request):
    response = {}
    solute = request.GET.get('solute')
    solvent = request.GET.get('solvent')
    results = [solute,solvent]
    return Response({'result':results}, status=200)
