NameError: name 'silk_profile' is not defined

[coderbhupendra]

do I need to add some extra code for adding @silk_profile

[avelis]

@coderbhupendra Can you provide a stacktrace outlining you error? At best, right now, I can suggest to make sure silk is added to the list of installed apps in your Django settings file.

[coderbhupendra]

my setting.py

SILKY_PYTHON_PROFILER = True
..

INSTALLED_APPS = [
	..
	'silk',
	]
MIDDLEWARE = [..
	'silk.middleware.SilkyMiddleware',
	]

Here is how am using @silk_profile in views.py

class ItemSearchViewSet(mixins.ListModelMixin, viewsets.GenericViewSet):
	serializer_class = ItemSearchSerializer  
	permission_classes = (permissions.IsAuthenticatedOrReadOnly,) 

	@silk_profile(name='get_queryset')
	def get_queryset(self):
			request = self.request
			queryset = EmptySearchQuerySet()

			if request.GET.get('q', ''):
				query = request.GET.get('q', '')
			return queryset

On running my code it give following error:

@coderbhupendra In this scenario, is the decorator imported at the top of the view file as so:

from silk.profiling.profiler import silk_profile

I am sure you do but wanted to make sure I covered that assumption.

BTW: I also think the documentation and README are very unclear on this.
