I would like to know how to retreive data using the GraphQl api service and NOT to create the API.
You can use a library like https://pypi.org/project/python-graphql-client/ for that.
Basically just look up 'python graphql request', it's not django-specific.

I am working on a django project that uses django avatar. But we also have other clients that are communicating with APIs. Does the django-avatar app have API endpoints or do I have to implement that myself?
You would have to implement endpoint using the Django rest framework or you can write your own custom endpoint, but there is no API endpoint already available in the market.
Let's say i wanted to use the weather api to implement in my django code. I know how to create Rest-api in django but how can i use api of other sources to django itself?
I have a requirement where I need to create APIs in wso2 api manager using swagger file for an API. Also, this should be created from backend.
I have been able to create APIs from backend as per the link https://docs.wso2.com/display/AM1100/apidocs/publisher/#!/operations#APICollection#apisPost
but it does not take swagger file for an API. How can I create an API using swagger file from backend.
Please help as I am stuck here.
Thanks
This cannot be done. You will have to follow the payload definition which is defined in the Post request.
Even if you try to import a Swagger file in API Manager publisher, still you need to manually change the API name, throttling policies and etc when creating the API.
I am confused. Some say it is a Restful API and some say it is not.
How do we define a RESTful API? GET,PUT,POST and DELETE commands ?
Can I call any web application which is built using django Web framework a Restful API?
I am confused. Some say it is a Restful API and some say it is not.
Two different kinds of Django:
Django - a web application framework to rapidly develop web applications
Django REST Framework (DRF) - a powerful framework to create RESTful APIs.
Both framework are in Python.
How do we define a RESTful API? GET,PUT,POST and DELETE commands ?
You create an API on your backend application that defines its purpose. If you use DRF for example, and the URL of your API is yourdomain.com/customers/, you can have it to:
return all the customers information by implementing GET method
create a customer information by implementing POST method
... and so on
Can I call any web application which is built using django Web framework a Restful API?
You call it as backend
Django is a web framework to create web backend while REST (REpresentational State Transfer) is an architectural style for developing web services.
You can use django to create REST apis.
You can explore further here:
Django: https://www.djangoproject.com/
REST: https://youtu.be/llpr5924N7E
What I understood from the web is here:
It should have some commands like PUT, GET, POST and DELETE etc., commands
The URL of the API should be user/machine understandable
It should have OAuth secret key and token for each client to access from his
application.
The URL should be www.api.xyz.com. But I am not sure about it to have api in the URL. Can someone confirm it?
And few more constraints to be a RESTful API. Hope all these points are correct.
I'm trying to find a way of sending data to my web server on Spring framework from Django which controls actions of tensorflow.
If Spring server send a request, is it possible to send a output from Django?
If you have experiences like this, please give me some tips.
You can simply make an HTTP request to your Django server, respond with JSON, and then parse that JSON into a Java class using a library like jackson.
Alternatively you can use a shared database where Spring simply uses JDBC to access the data you are trying to reach.
