ActivityAPI

Backend Python I Assignment | FullThrottle Labs

Design and implement a Django application with User and ActivityPeriod models, write a custom management command to populate the database with some dummy data, and design an API to serve that data in the json format given below.

{
	"ok": true,
	"members": [{
			"id": "W012A3CDE",
			"real_name": "Egon Spengler",
			"tz": "America/Los_Angeles",
			"activity_periods": [{
					"start_time": "Feb 1 2020  1:33PM",
					"end_time": "Feb 1 2020 1:54PM"
				},
				{
					"start_time": "Mar 1 2020  11:11AM",
					"end_time": "Mar 1 2020 2:00PM"
				},
				{
					"start_time": "Mar 16 2020  5:33PM",
					"end_time": "Mar 16 2020 8:02PM"
				}
			]
		},
