Short UUIDField for Django. Good for use in urls & file names. (Base 57, 22 characters)
Project description
django-shortuuidfield
----------------
Provides a ShortUUIDField for your Django models which uses the base-57 "Short UUID" package at https://github.com/stochastic-technologies/shortuuid/ .
Originally, a fork from David Cramer's excellent django-uuidfield, but not much is left of that besides a bit of structure.
Installation
============
Install it with pip (or easy_install)::
pip install django-shortuuidfield
Usage
=====
First you'll need to attach a ShortUUIDField to your class. This acts as a char(22) to maintain compatibility with SQL versions::
from shortuuidfield import ShortUUIDField
class MyModel(models.Model):
uuid = ShortUUIDField(auto=False)
Enjoy!
