Overview of this book

Python is the language of choice for millions of developers worldwide that builds great web services in RESTful architecture. This second edition of Hands-On RESTful Python Web Services will cover the best tools you can use to build engaging web services. This book shows you how to develop RESTful APIs using the most popular Python frameworks and all the necessary stacks with Python, combined with related libraries and tools. You’ll learn to incorporate all new features of Python 3.7, Flask 1.0.2, Django 2.1, Tornado 5.1, and also a new framework, Pyramid. As you advance through the chapters, you will get to grips with each of these frameworks to build various web services, and be shown use cases and best practices covering when to use a particular framework. You’ll then successfully develop RESTful APIs with all frameworks and understand how each framework processes HTTP requests and routes URLs. You’ll also discover best practices for validation, serialization, and deserialization. In the concluding chapters, you will take advantage of specific features available in certain frameworks such as integrated ORMs, built-in authorization and authentication, and work with asynchronous code. At the end of each framework, you will write tests for RESTful APIs and improve code coverage. By the end of the book, you will have gained a deep understanding of the stacks needed to build RESTful web services.

Creating models with their relationships

Now, we will create the models that we will use to represent and persist the notification categories, notifications, and their relationships in the PostgreSQL database.

Open the service/models.py file and replace its contents with the following code. The lines that declare fields related to other models are highlighted in the code listing. If you created a new virtual environment, create a new models.py file within the service folder. The code file for the sample is included in the restful_python_2_02_01 folder, in the Flask01/service/models.py file:

from marshmallow import Schema, fields, pre_load 
from marshmallow import validate 
from flask_sqlalchemy import SQLAlchemy 
from flask_marshmallow import Marshmallow 
 
 
orm = SQLAlchemy() 
ma = Marshmallow() 
 
 
class ResourceAddUpdateDelete():    
    def add(self, resource): 
       ...
