Package Renaming Migration Guide

As part of our efforts to streamline our package offerings, the djangorestframework-simple-apikey has been renamed to drf-simple-apikey. This section provides a detailed guide on how to migrate your project to use the new package name.

Renaming the Package

1. Uninstall the Old Package: Remove the existing package by running the following command in your terminal:

   pip uninstall djangorestframework-simple-apikey
   

2. Install the New Package: Install the new package using pip:

   pip install drf-simple-apikey
   

Updating Project Imports

You will need to update your import statements in your Django project. Change all existing import statements from:

import djangorestframework_simple_apikey

to:

import drf_simple_apikey

Migrating Django Settings

Update your Django project settings to reflect the changes in the package configuration:

• Change any references from SIMPLE_API_KEY settings to DRF_API_KEY. For example:

  # Old settings
  SIMPLE_API_KEY = {
      'API_KEY': 'your-api-key-here',
      'OTHER_SETTINGS': 'values'
  }
  
  # New settings
  DRF_API_KEY = {
      'API_KEY': 'your-api-key-here',
      'OTHER_SETTINGS': 'values'
  }
  

Ensure that you update these settings throughout your project configuration files to avoid any issues during deployment or development.
