[Fixed]-Overwrite django restframework CreateModelMixin serializer error message

1👍

✅

You almost did it right with serializer, you just forgot to put it inside error_messages

from django.utils.translation import ugettext_lazy as _

class PositionSerializer(serializers.ModelSerializer):
    class Meta:
        model = MyModel
        fields = ('id', 'name', 'description')
        extra_kwargs = {"name": {"error_messages": {"blank": _("Customized message goes here")}}}

Also you can try setting this message in model. Using blank

class MyModel(models.Model):
    name = models.CharField(..., error_messages={'blank': _("Customized message goes here")})

Return data from $.ajax to use later

You can go as in your example 1, but instead of “required” use keyword “blank”:

def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
    super(PositionSerializer, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs)
    self.fields['name'].error_messages['blank'] = 'My custom required msg'
