I am running a Django site on Apache which is front'ed by Nginx instance to serve my static media.
I expose an API via django-tastypie to a model that I need to PATCH a field on. When I do local testing (via the django runserver) everything works as expected. On the live server however I get "400 (Bad Request)" returned.
I've read a few places saying that Nginx does not support PATCH? Is that right? Is there a good workaround for this? Am I doing something wrong?
I only send through the fields I want to update via the postData.
JQuery Code:
$.ajax({url: '...',
type: 'PATCH',
accepts: 'application/json',
contentType: 'application/json',
dataType: 'json',
data: postData,
processData: false,
success: function() {
// Success Code!
},
error: function() {
// Error Code!
}
});
Tastypie Resource:
class ReceivedMessageResource(ModelResource):
"""
"""
campaign = fields.ForeignKey(CampaignResource, 'campaign')
campaign_name = fields.CharField(readonly=True)
campaign_id = fields.IntegerField(readonly=True)
message_type = fields.CharField(readonly=True)
display_date = fields.CharField(readonly=True)
attachments = fields.ToManyField('apps.campaign.api.AttachmentResource',
'attachment_set',
related_name='message',
full=True)
class Meta:
queryset = ReceivedMessage.objects.all()
resource_name = 'message'
filtering = {'id': ALL,
'campaign': ALL_WITH_RELATIONS}
excludes = ['reason', 'provider', 'loyalty_profile', 'original_message', 'date_received']
allowed_methods = ['get', 'post', 'put', 'delete', 'patch']
paginator_class = ReceivedMessagesPaginator
authentication = ApiKeyAuthentication()
authorization = DjangoAuthorization()
Any direction on how to sort this will be appreciated :)
