I'm 2 weeks into django so this might be dumb!
In my django project, I have 3 models, Teacher, Student and a CustomUser. CustomUser has 2 fields first_name and last_name. Student has 3 fields grade, field_of_study and user which is a foreign key to CustomUser.
Now inside my StudentSerializer I want to serialize first_name, last_name, grade and field of study. But because the last 2 field are not direct fields of Student, I cannot do that. Anyone know how this should be handled?
I also came across this Retrieving a Foreign Key value with django-rest-framework serializers but the answer didn't help really.
