Urlize DRF Link

manpreet Best Answer 2 years ago

I have a DRF serializer:

class ActivitySerializer(serializers.ModelSerializer):
    link = serializers.CharField(source='get_analytic_link', allow_null=True)
    class Meta:
        model = Activity
        fields = ['link',]

In the browsable API, the links">links are clickable. However, when they are served up to a DataTable via a JSON endpoint, they are (predictably) not clickable. In plain Django, I would do something like this:

<td>{{ activity.get_analytic_link|urlize }}td>

How could I replicate that behavior in DRF so that links">links are clickable?
