The $FIELDNAME field does not allow filtering.

[Mohammed Khan]

Hi there,

I am using Django 1.3 + Tastypie 0.9.11 , and I have this situation, irrespective to what ModelResource i had filtering options, they just dont seem to work. All i get is this error "The $FieldName field does nto allow filtering.".

For Example:

class UserProfileResource(ModelResource):

user = fields.ForeignKey(UserResource, 'user')

class Meta:

queryset = UserProfile.objects.all()

resource_name = 'uprofile'

#authentication = ApiKeyAuthentication()

authorization= DjangoAuthorization()

paginator_class = Paginator

list_allowed_methods = ['get', 'post']

        detail_allowed_methods = ['get', 'post', 'put', 'delete']

        serializer = Serializer(formats=['json'])

        filtering = {

        "gender": ('exact',),

        }

and the test url is http://127.0.0.1:8000/api/v1/uprofile/?format=json&gender=M

For this i get the following error: The 'gender' field does not allow filtering.

Any help on how to resolve would be great. 

Thanks.

There's no "gender" field to filter on.  I'm assuming you want something like this, but you'll have to make sure the UserResource is set up to allow filtering on gender.

Well I have got Gender defined as a model field in the UserProfile model. I am not sure what you meant. Thanks.

Hm, looks like google groups did something weird with that url.  Let me try again:
