Unable to find apps about django-rest-swagger

[marcgibbons]

Hi - sorry to hear you're having trouble. What does your urls.py look like?

[thisispuneet]

try forward slash in the end of url: http://localhost:8000/api-docs/api-docs/animals/
try this url directly in the browser and see if it works..

Thanks for answering guys!

@thisispuneet Tried it with /users/ and it gives AttributeError on a ViewSet (which passes unit tests by itself) so something breaks.

@marcgibbons
Here is a sample for the users app:

router = SimpleRouter()
router.register(r'users', UsersViewSet, base_name='users')
urlpatterns = router.urls
urlpatterns += patterns('',
    url(r'^users/(?P<pk>\d+)/followees', FolloweesCollectionView.as_view(), name='api.users.views.followees-collection'),
    url(r'^users/(?P<pk>\d+)/followers', FollowersCollectionView.as_view(), name='api.users.views.followers-collection'),

And we also have one big urls.py which includes this in the following manner

urlpatterns = patterns('',
    # Uncomment the next line to enable the admin:
    url(r'^admin/', include(admin.site.urls)),
    url(r'^rest-api/', include('rest_framework_docs.urls')),

    #Users
    url(r'', include('api.users.urls')),

Hmm I had the similar issue, this solution worked for me..
in:

python2.7/site-packages/rest_framework_swagger/urls.py

change the last url patterns,
from:
url(r'^api-docs/(?P<path>.*)/$', SwaggerApiView.as_view(), name='django.swagger.api.view'),
to:
url(r'^api-docs/(?P<path>.*)$', SwaggerApiView.as_view(), name='django.swagger.api.view'),

also make sure you have the correct "api_path" provided in settings.py

As blagovest-gospodinov-rn said:

Basically what I am trying to understand is why the rest swagger is looking for my app 'animals' in /api-docs/api-docs/ (the app is accessible through /animals).

rest swagger creates JSON files for each API, swagger pulls APIs-info from these JSONs.
rest swagger saves all these JSONs in /api-docs/
so its path is something like this.. url-to-rest-swagger/api-docs/API-path
(in your case: http://localhost:8000/api-docs/api-docs/{API-path} )
you can also check all the APIs its pulling, from: http://localhost:8000/api-docs/api-docs/

Disabled appended slashes are now supported
