inflection is not performed by AutoPrefetchMixin for included resources
On v4.0.0, inflection is not performed by the AutoPrefetchMixin for included resources, contrary to the JSONRenderer.
Suppose the following data model, serializers and viewsets:
from django.db import models
from rest_framework import viewsets, mixins
from rest_framework_json_api import views, serializers
class Album(models.Model):
title = models.TextField()
class Track(models.Model)
title = models.TextField()
is_part_of = models.ManyToManyField(Album)
class AlbumSerializer(serializers.ModelSerializer):
class Meta:
model = Album
fields = ["title"]
class TrackSerializer(serializers.ModelSerializer):
class Meta:
model = Track
fields = ["title", "is_part_of"]
included_serializers = {
"is_part_of": AlbumSerializer,
}
class Track(
views.AutoPrefetchMixin,
views.RelatedMixin,
mixins.ListModelMixin,
viewsets.GenericViewSet
):
serializer_class = serializers.TrackSerializer
queryset = Track.objects.all()
Both GET /tracks?include=is-part-of and GET /tracks?include=isPartOf correctly return the set all of tracks along with their albums' titles embedded within the included section of the response.
However, prefetch of the tracks' related album objects is not performed, as one would expect from views.AutoPrefetchMixin.
My workaround is to perform GET tracks?include=is_part_of, which returns the same thing as the above two queries but also performs prefetching.
My investigation has shown me that the AutoPrefetchMixin does not perform inflection of the result of get_included_resources that it uses to create the argument passed to prefetch_related. The JSONRenderer does the following instead:
included_resources = copy.copy(included_resources)
included_resources = [inflection.underscore(value) for value in included_resources]
