Setup
$ cd rest-api
$ pip install -r requirements.txt
$ python manage.py makemigrations
$ python manage.py migrate
$ python manage.py runserver
The app should now be running on http://127.0.0.1:8000/api/.
The two usable endpoints are http://127.0.0.1:8000/api/users/ and http://127.0.0.1:8000/api/addresses/.
When creating a user a nested address can be created. It is not possible to update the nested address with the users endpoint. Updates have to be done with the address endpoint.
The HTTP-verbs are 'GET' for retrieving data, 'POST' for creating entities, 'PUT' for updating entities, 'PATCH' for partially updating entities and 'DELETE' for deleting entities.
