Serializing FilterSet

[michaelastein]

Hello, how can I serialize the Filterset in order to send it back to my angular Frontend?

views.py:
@api_view(['GET'])
def materialien_search(request):
# GET list of materials with theses attributes
filter = MaterialFilter(request.GET, queryset=Materialien.objects.all())
materialien_serializer = MaterialienSerializer(filter, many=True)
return JsonResponse(materialien_serializer.data, safe=False)

serializers.py:

class MaterialienSerializer(serializers.ModelSerializer):
class Meta:
model = Materialien
fields = [field.name for field in Materialien._meta.get_fields()]

filter.py:
class MaterialFilter(django_filters.FilterSet):
class Meta:
model = Materialien
fields = 'all'

In the moment its not working because "TypeError: 'MaterialFilter' object is not iterable". I'd be very thankfull for any help.

The filter set is equivalent to the applied filters, which is just the GET QueryDict standardly.
