Django

Hi everyone,

From Django Series: Part 2 - Designing and Implementing a Shopping Cart API - 5 - Getting a Cart,

when I paste UUID previously generated in page url, this message is returned:

Page not found (404)

Request Method: GET
Request URL: http://127.0.0.1:8000/store/carts/7fd7585f-49f3-4009-83c6-49a97aba16f3

I don’t understand why I can’t reach the cart instance.

Thank you for your help.

Mosh’s video cut off the beginning of the solution where he adds “RetrieveModelMixin” to the CartViewSet so it becomes:

class CartViewSet(CreateModelMixin, RetrieveModelMixin, GenericViewSet):
    queryset = Cart.objects.all()
    serializer_class = CartSerializer

You see that he added it at timestamp 8:36 of the lesson 5 video.

I found it from these smart people on the forum here and here:
