Django REST Framework (Model Serlializer Quiz Question)

Here is the question:

Great! Now create a ModelSerializer for each of the three models, Game, Player, and Score. Name them ModelNameSerializer, e.g. PlayerSerializer. Remember to set the model attribute in the class Meta.

My code won't get accepted ! anything wrong with it ?

scorekeeper/serializers.py 
from rest_framework import serializers
from . import models

class GameSerializer(serializers.ModelSerializer):
    class Meta:
        model = Game

class PlayerSerializer(serializers.ModelSerializer):
    class Meta:
        model = Player

class ScoreSerializer(serializers.ModelSerializer):
    class Meta:
        model = Score

Hey Abdulla!

Just on their own, Player, Game and Score are not defined.

Try accessing them though models.<ClassName>

Mine is also failing with models.classname

from rest_framework import serializers from . import models

class GameSerializer(serializer.ModelSerializer): class Meta: model = models.Game

class PlayerSerializer(serializer.ModelSerializer): class Meta: model = models.Player

class ScoreSerializer(serializer.ModelSerializer): class Meta: model = models.Score
