I'm trying to test my command line client with Django. I want to use the requests module in my client to fetch data from Django, but I'm testing this inside an APITestCase class so I can create factories using Factory_Boy.
I get a connection refused error.
The file in my front-end to call the view:
from . import urls import requests, json HEADERS = {'content-type':'application/json'} BASE_URL = 'http://127.0.0.1:80/' def post(url, **data): query = json.dumps(data) r = requests.post(BASE_URL+url, data=query, headers=HEADERS) return r.json() def get(url, **data): query = json.dumps(data) r = requests.get(BASE_URL+url, data=query, headers=HEADERS) return r.json() The tests file for Django app, inside a APITestCase class:
def setUp(self): self.client = APIClient() self.populate_addresses() self.populate_carriers() self.populate_drivers() def test_requests(self): a = query.query_address(err_msg='Stop not found.', conf_msg='Create new stop.') def populate_addresses(self): self.Address__A1 = factories.AddressFactory( name='BDI', city='CHATSWORTH', zip_code='92111', state='CA', street='12345 BANDINI BLVD') self.Address__A2 = factories.AddressFactory( name='BM', city='FAIRFIELD', zip_code='92111', state='CA', street='2400 HUNTINGTON BLVD')
