django - How to change the format of REST API Filter?

Question

I'm filtering the date of REST API url by calling a string.

/api/data/?date_range=Today for Today but converting it into a date /api/data/?date_range=2021-01-28 won't work.

How to change this? Thanks!

class DataFilter(filters.FilterSet):
    start_date = DateFilter(field_name='timestamp', lookup_expr='gt')
    end_date = DateFilter(field_name='timestamp', lookup_expr='lt')
    date_range = DateRangeFilter(field_name='timestamp')

    class Meta:
        model = Data
        fields = []


class DataView(generics.ListCreateAPIView):
    serializer_class = RainfallSerializer
    queryset = Data.objects.all()
    filterset_class = DataFilter

    def get(self, request, *args, **kwargs):
        queryset = self.filter_queryset(self.get_queryset())
        serializer = DataSerializer(queryset, many=True)
        return Response(serializer.data)
