curl - How to access custom HTTP request headers on Django Rest Framework?

I'm sending a post request to my API made using django rest framework:

curl --header "X-MyHeader: 123" --data "test=test" http://127.0.0.1:8000/api/update_log/

In my rest framework view, I want to get my costum header, and if the custom header satisfies a condition, I will proceed to analyze my post data.

Ok, my view looks like:

class PostUpdateLogView(APIView):
    throttle_classes = ()
    permission_classes = ()
    parser_classes = (
        parsers.FormParser,
        parsers.MultiPartParser,
        parsers.JSONParser,
    )  

    renderer_classes = (renderers.JSONRenderer,)

    def post(self, request):
        print request.Meta
        # Get custom header
        # Validate custom header
        # Proceed to analize post data

        # Make response
        content = {
            'response': 'response',
        }

        return Response(content)

I'm trying to find my custom header on request.Meta element, but when I print request.Meta, I get a 500 error. If I print request.data, I get the expected response.

?What is the way to get a custom header on my post request using django rest framework?

The name of the meta data attribute of request is in upper case:

print request.META

Your header will be available as:

request.META['HTTP_X_MYHEADER']

Or:

request.META.get('HTTP_X_MYHEADER') # return `None` if no such header

Quote from the documentation:

HTTP headers in the request are converted to META keys by converting all characters to uppercase, replacing any hyphens with underscores and adding an HTTP_ prefix to the name. So, for example, a header called X-Bender would be mapped to the META key HTTP_X_BENDER.
