It includes a custom Enum class that auto-generates human-readable labels for use in admin dropdowns and forms, plus integration with Django's admin list filters and Django REST Framework serializers.\n\nThe package is straightforward to use: define a Python enum, attach it to a model field, and query using enum members directly rather than raw strings or integers. It handles form field generation and admin integration automatically. However, the project is no longer maintained\u2014the last release was in February 2021 and the last repository commit in December 2022\u2014so it may not work reliably with newer Django or Python versions.","worth_installing":"No\u2014unless you are locked into Django 2.2, 3.0, or 3.1 with Python 3.5\u20133.9 and have no plans to upgrade. The package is abandoned and has not been updated since 2021. Compatibility with newer versions is unverified. For new projects, consider using Django's native choices with enums or a maintained alternative."},"id":"django-enumfields","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/django-enumfields","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/django-enumfields.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/django-enumfields/"},"maintenance":{"status":"abandoned"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2021-02-23","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"django-enumfields","python_support":"unspecified","summary":"Real Python Enums for Django."},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":132797,"position":11536,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"2.1.1"}
