I am working on a Django project with Django REST Framework, and I’m encountering a ValueError when trying to filter orders by customer ID. Here is the error traceback:

[22/Jun/2024 11:59:17] "GET /orders/ HTTP/1.1" 500 145512

Here is the relevant code snippet from views.py:

class OrderViewSet(ModelViewSet):
    queryset = Order.objects.all()
    serializer_class = OrderSerializer
    permission_classes = [IsAuthenticated]

    def get_queryset(self):
        customer_id = self.request.user.id
        return Order.objects.filter(customer_id=customer_id)

Models (models.py):

from django.db import models
from django.conf import settings

class Customer(models.Model):
    phone = models.CharField(max_length=255)
    user = models.OneToOneField(settings.AUTH_USER_MODEL, on_delete=models.CASCADE)

class Order(models.Model):
    placed_at = models.DateTimeField(auto_now_add=True)
    payment_status = models.CharField(max_length=1, choices=[('P', 'Pending'), ('C', 'Complete'), ('F', 'Failed')], default='P')
    customer = models.ForeignKey(Customer, on_delete=models.PROTECT)
    tickets = models.ManyToManyField('Ticket', through='OrderItem')

It seems that the customer field in the Order model references the Customer model, but the error suggests that a User instance is expected.

Question:
How can I resolve this error so that I can correctly filter orders by the logged-in user?
