title: Serialize queryset in Django rest framework
body: <p>I am trying to serialize a collection of objects. I have define the following view method:</p>
  
  <pre><code>@csrf_exempt
  def venue_list(request, user_id):
      """
      Check that the user is requesting his own venues.
      """
      profile = get_profile_for_user_if_match(request.user, user_id)
  
      if profile is None:
          return HttpResponse(status=status.HTTP_401_UNAUTHORIZED)
  
      venues = profile.venue_set.all()
      serializer = VenueSerializer(venues)
  
      return JSONResponse(serializer.data)
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>It receives a <code>user_id</code> parameter which is used to determine if the user has permissions to access the data, then it gets the set of objects to be returned, but it doesn't work.</p>
  
  <p>It is trying to serialize the set directly, instead of the object inside it, so its throwing this traceback:</p>

  <p>How can I make this properly?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks.</p>
