An HttpResponse subclass that helps to create a JSON-encoded response. Its default Content-Type header is set to application/JSON.
The first parameter, data, should be a dict instance. If non-dict object is passed as the first argument, a TypeError will be raised.
Example dict instance:
from django.http import JsonResponse
def user(req):
response = {
'id': 1,
'name': 'Tom',
'status': Active
}
return JsonResponse(response)
Example non-dict object:
return JsonResponse([1, 2, 3, 4])
TypeError: In order to allow non-dict objects to be serialized set the safe parameter to False
By default, the JsonResponse’s first parameter, data, should be a dict instance. To pass any other JSON-serializable object you must set the safe parameter to False.
return JsonResponse([1, 2, 3, 4], safe=False)
The safe boolean parameter defaults to True. If it’s set to False, any object can be passed for serialization (otherwise only dict instances are allowed).
