title: django rest api for advance search
body: <p>i want to create a api using django rest framework which will do some advance search, say a <strong>list of grocery item is saved in database and user want to create a list of grocery and he enters first 2 or 3 letters and then my api will do query to get rest of the item name and will suggest to user</strong></p>
  
  <p>I have seen the documentation of <a href="http://drf-haystack.readthedocs.io/en/latest/02_autocomplete.html" rel="nofollow noreferrer">drf haystack</a> but not sure whether will it fulfill my requirement. Also it does not support django LTS version 1.11 .</p>
  
  <p>Can you please give me some suggestion? is django rest framework itself provide any support to create such a api which will do <code>such advance search</code> which i mentioned above? i just need some suggestion as i am new in django rest framework.</p>
