Error importing serializers from rest_framework in Django project
I am facing an issue while trying to import serializers from the rest_framework module in my Django project. When I use the following line of code:
from rest_framework import serializers
I receive the following error message:
ImportError: cannot import name 'serializers' from 'rest_framework'
I have ensured that Django REST Framework is installed correctly, but I am still encountering this problem. Can someone help me figure out what might be causing this issue? Any suggestions for troubleshooting this error would be appreciated!
I have already tried selecting the correct interpreter, and I have verified that both pip and django are installed. I also confirmed that Python is set up correctly, but I am still encountering this issue.
I have also added it in the settings.py
INSTALLED_APPS = [
'django.contrib.admin',
'django.contrib.auth',
'django.contrib.contenttypes',
'django.contrib.sessions',
'django.contrib.messages',
'django.contrib.staticfiles',
'api',
'rest_framework',
]
It looks like you defined a directory named rest_framework
. You should not define modules with the same name as modules you want to import.
So rename the module to something else, and update INSTALLED_APPS
accordingly.
