I believe that the error with the inability to ‘PUT’ or ‘POST’ comes from – in this example anyway – from the fact that the Grid has a form that opens to allow editing of the fields in the grid, on double-click, BUT the grid is set up to use a GridEditor, so there is no need for the form1. By removing the form1 and the ‘this.destroy()’ the processes for ‘PUT’ and ‘POST’ now work as Dorn wrote them to. Pretty impressive stuff though! I LIKE IT!!!!

I was mainly interested in the custom emitters and tried to add emitters.py, but didn’t get it working until I added this to __init__.py

from app_name.api.emitters import *

Thanks for the article helped a ton

I am getting the BAD REQUEST on PUT. 185346: could you please tell me where you found the uwsgi_params file? I am running on OS X and cannot find this file under the django installation. Any other ways of fixing this problem?

Discovered something else too. For me, the uwsgi_params file had a line that mentioned the contenttype field. Took out the line, everything magically worked! My guess is that either nginx or uwsgi was mangling it somewhere along the way, and when I took out that line, everything just starting using their default settings.
