Our database has a few rows in each of the tables that persist the models we have defined. However, after we start working with our API in a real-life production environment, we will have thousands of player scores, players, games, and game categories, and therefore, we will have to deal with large result sets. We can take advantage of the pagination features available in Django REST Framework to make it easy to specify how we want large results sets to be split into individual pages of data.
First, we will compose and send HTTP requests to create 10 games that belong to one of the categories we have created: 2D mobile arcade
. This way, we will have a total of 12 games that persist in the database. We had 2 games and we will add 10 more:
