missing "Meta.model" attribute

[matthijs zondervan]

Hi, i am trying to build a simple API. I started using the tutorial on the site.

I made the user API point it works fine.

But when i try to make my own API entry point with my own model, I get this error "Class PrinterSerializer missing "Meta.model" attribute"

My model:

class Printer(models.Model):
    printer_name = models.CharField(max_length=255)
    printer_description = models.TextField(blank=True, null=True)
    printer_img = models.ImageField(blank=True, null=True)
    printer_ip = models.GenericIPAddressField(blank=True, null=True)
    printer_apikey = models.CharField(max_length=255, blank=True, null=True)
    printer_username = models.CharField(max_length=255, blank=True, null=True)
    printer_password = models.CharField(max_length=255, blank=True, null=True)

    class Meta:
        ordering = ['printer_name']

    def __str__(self):
        return self.printer_name

Serializer:

class PrinterSerializer(serializers.HyperlinkedModelSerializer):
    class Meta:
        model: Printer
        fields = ['printer_name']

View:

class PrinterViewSet(viewsets.ModelViewSet):
    queryset = Printer.objects.all()
    serializer_class = PrinterSerializer

Urls:

router = routers.DefaultRouter()
router.register('api/printer', PrinterViewSet)

urlpatterns = [
    path('admin/', admin.site.urls),
    path('', include(router.urls)),
]

What is going wrong? 

I am trying for 3 days now

I think you have a bad assigned in class Meta definition instead of using Model : Printer you have to add model = Printer is just a bad assigned.

In Serializer:
Its, class Meta:

            model = your_model

            fields = (your_fields,)
