Taking advantage of generic class based views

Go to the gamesapi/games folder and open the views.py file. Replace the code in this file with the following code that declares the required imports and the class based views. We will add more classes to this file later. The code file for the sample is included in the restful_python_chapter_02_03 folder:

from games.models import GameCategory 
from games.models import Game 
from games.models import Player 
from games.models import PlayerScore 
from games.serializers import GameCategorySerializer 
from games.serializers import GameSerializer 
from games.serializers import PlayerSerializer 
from games.serializers import PlayerScoreSerializer 
from rest_framework import generics 
from rest_framework.response import Response 
from rest_framework.reverse import reverse 
 
 
class GameCategoryList(generics.ListCreateAPIView): 
    queryset = GameCategory.objects.all() 
    serializer_class = GameCategorySerializer 
    name = 'gamecategory-list' 
 
 
class GameCategoryDetail(generics.RetrieveUpdateDestroyAPIView): 
    queryset = GameCategory.objects.all() 
    serializer_class = GameCategorySerializer 
    name = 'gamecategory-detail' 
 
 
class GameList(generics.ListCreateAPIView): 
    queryset = Game.objects.all() 
    serializer_class = GameSerializer 
    name = 'game-list' 
 
 
class GameDetail(generics.RetrieveUpdateDestroyAPIView): 
    queryset = Game.objects.all() 
    serializer_class = GameSerializer 
    name = 'game-detail' 
 
 
class PlayerList(generics.ListCreateAPIView): 
    queryset = Player.objects.all() 
    serializer_class = PlayerSerializer 
    name = 'player-list' 
 
 
class PlayerDetail(generics.RetrieveUpdateDestroyAPIView): 
    queryset = Player.objects.all() 
    serializer_class = PlayerSerializer 
    name = 'player-detail' 
 
 
class PlayerScoreList(generics.ListCreateAPIView): 
    queryset = PlayerScore.objects.all() 
    serializer_class = PlayerScoreSerializer 
    name = 'playerscore-list' 
 
 
class PlayerScoreDetail(generics.RetrieveUpdateDestroyAPIView): 
    queryset = PlayerScore.objects.all() 
    serializer_class = PlayerScoreSerializer 
    name = 'playerscore-detail' 

The following table summarizes the methods that each class-based view is going to process:

In addition, we will be able to execute the OPTIONS HTTP verb on any of the scopes.
