Tastypie api for multiple models

I have two models

class LCUser(models.Model):
    email = models.CharField(max_length=100,unique=True)
    password = models.CharField(max_length=100)

class UserProfile(models.Model):
    user = models.OneToOneField(LCUser,primary_key=True)
    mobile_phone = models.IntegerField(null=True)
    address = models.CharField(max_length=500,null=True)

class UserProfileResource(MultipartResource, ModelResource): 
    class Meta:
        resource_name = 'profile'
        queryset = UserProfile.objects.all()

I want to setup the /profile/ endpoint such that CRUD operations manage all 5 fields.

1) Can I do that ? 2) Is it a good practice ? 3) If not what would be my alternatives ?

You can do it like this:

class LCUser(models.Model):
    email = models.CharField(max_length=100, unique=True)
    password = models.CharField(max_length=100)

class UserProfile(models.Model):
    user = models.OneToOneField(LCUser, primary_key=True)
    mobile_phone = models.IntegerField(null=True)
    address = models.CharField(max_length=500, null=True)

class LCUserResource(MultipartResource, ModelResource):
    class Meta:
        resource_name = 'lcuser'
        queryset = LCUser.objects.all()
        excludes = ('password',)

class UserProfileResource(MultipartResource, ModelResource):
    user = fields.ToOneField(LCUserResource, 'user')

    class Meta:
        resource_name = 'profile'
        queryset = UserProfile.objects.all()

Make sure to exclude the password, you don't want that getting read.
