Installation
------------

Installation using pip::

    pip install django-smalluuid

Tested on:

 * Django >= 2.2 <= 4.0
 * Python 3.7, 3.8, 3.9, 3.10


Basic Usage
-----------

To get started use the ``SmallUUIDField`` field in your model definitions:

.. code-block:: python

    from django.db import models
    from django_smalluuid.models import SmallUUIDField, uuid_default

    class ExampleModel(models.Model):
        uuid = SmallUUIDField(default=uuid_default())

The field provides values as instances of ``SmallUUID`` (see smalluuid_):

.. code-block:: python

    >>> obj = ExampleModel.objects.create()

    # The initial UUID has been auto-generated by uuid_default()
    >>> obj.uuid
    SmallUUID('T1q_P6HcQNSyW6tpqJTxww')

    # It is still available in the groupex hex form (if needed)
    >>> obj.hex_grouped
    '4f5abf3f-a1dc-40d4-b25b-ab69a894f1c3'

    # Filtering is done on the shortened UUIDs
    >>> ExampleModel.objects.filter(uuid='T1q_P6HcQNSyW6tpqJTxww')
    [<ExampleModel: ExampleModel object>]


Typed Usage
-----------

``django-smalluuid`` also supports the Typed UUID's as provided by smalluuid_. This
allows for the object's type to be stored within the UUID.

Updating the above example:

.. code-block:: python

    from django.db import models
    from django_smalluuid.models import SmallUUIDField, uuid_typed_default

    class TypedExampleModel(models.Model):
        uuid = SmallUUIDField(default=uuid_typed_default(type=42))

Which can be interacted with as follows:

.. code-block:: python

    >>> obj = TypedExampleModel.objects.create()
    >>> obj.uuid
    TypedSmallUUID('qvyk8nzbQfu8zAnTPQweyw')
    >>> obj.uuid.type
    42
