I'm one serializer inside another to show information from one model, and selected fields from another in the same response.

This looks like this:

class SimpleRouteClientConstraintSerializer(serializers.ModelSerializer):



     name = serializers.SerializerMethodField()



    def get_name(self, obj):

        default_constraint = RouteDefaultConstraint.objects.get(pk=obj.route_default_constraint_id)

        return default_constraint.name



    class Meta:

        model = RouteClientConstraint

        fields = ('name', 'value')



class RouteSerializer(serializers.ModelSerializer):

    ...

    # Calling first serializer here

    routeClientConstraints = SimpleRouteClientConstraintSerializer(many=True, required=False)

    ...



    class Meta:

        model = Route

        fields = (..., 'routeClientConstraints', ...)

        depth = 1

When running the RouteSerilalizer, i want a response:

'routeClientConstraints': [{

    'name': 'my name'

    'value': 'confused'

},

...

]

If i use the serializer as in the code above, I get

'routeClientConstraints': [

    OrderedDict([

        ('name', 'Minimum life boats'),

        ('value', '6')

    ])

]

I tried changing the serializer to: routeClientConstraints = SimpleRouteClientConstraintSerializer(many=True, required=False).data, which i expected would give me json format, but i got this:

'routeClientConstraints': [

    OrderedDict([

        ('id', 1),

        ('value', '6'), 

        ('created_at', '2018-11-10T14:17:39.263848Z'), 

        ('updated_at', '2018-11-10T14:17:39.263861Z'), 

        ('route_default_constraint', 1), 

        ('route', 1)])

]

How do i return a list of dictionaries?
