Path error in django rest framework : Specifying a namespace in include() without providing an app_name is not supported

Question

In my django rest framework app I have Urls.py as follows:

from django.urls import include, path
from .shipper import*
from .views import *


urlpatterns = [path('shipper/',
                    include(path('shipperitems/', MasterItemsList.as_view()),
                            path('shippercreateapi/', shipperCreateAPIView.as_view()),)),

               ]

When I try to run the app it gives me the following error:

django.core.exceptions.ImproperlyConfigured: Specifying a namespace in include() without providing an app_name is not supported. Set the app_name attribute in the included module, or pass a 2-tuple containing t he list of patterns and app_name instead.

what should I do to resolve this ?

Encounter the same problem when learning djangorestframework. Seems the tutorial from rest_framework is outdated. django-rest-framework.org/tutorial/quickstart/#urls — Simba

You are using the include(...) function in the wrong way. include(...) usually takes the module which contains url-patterns. So change your code as below,

#root urls.py
from django.urls import include, path

urlpatterns = [
    path('shipper/', include('shipper.urls')),
]

and

#/shipper/urls.py
urlpatterns = [
    path('shipperitems/', MasterItemsList.as_view()),
    path('shippercreateapi/', shipperCreateAPIView.as_view()),)),

]

Check the docs for include here. You should pass paramters to include like this

url(r'^reviews/', include('app_name.urls', 'app_name'), namespace='app_name')),
