Answer 1

Try to install:

pip install django-rest-framework-mongoengine

Answer 2

You need to install rest_framework_mongoengine; it is a separate package.

Answer 3

You need to install mongo engine package
from pypi
pip install django-rest-framework-mongoengine

from github

• download some release from github, unpack somewhere.
• copy subdir unpacked_path/rest_framework_mongoengine into your django project or inside python path
• or, install using pip unpacked_path

Include the packages in Django settings.

INSTALLED_APPS = (

...
'rest_framework'
'rest_framework_mongoengine',
...

)

Answer 4

add these in settings.py file

INSTALLED_APPS = (

... 'rest_framework', 'rest_framework_mongoengine', ... )

If you are working in virtualenv ,then install this module in python directory path

C:\Python34\Scripts> pip install django-rest-framework-mongoengine

instead of env path C:\Python34\Scripts\env\Scripts> pip install django-rest-framework-mongoengine
