Verified usage

Verified import paths — ran on the pinned version, not inferred.

DistanceField
✓ from django_measurement.fields import DistanceField
✗ from django_measurement.models import DistanceField
WeightField
✓ from django_measurement.fields import WeightField
VolumeField
✓ from django_measurement.fields import VolumeField

Quickest way to get started: define a model with a DistanceField and create an instance passing a string with unit.

from django.db import models from django_measurement.models import DistanceField class MyModel(models.Model): distance = DistanceField() # Usage: obj = MyModel.objects.create(distance='5 km') print(obj.distance) # 5.0 kilometer print(obj.distance.unit) # kilometer

Known issues
breakingVersion 3.x switched from pypi 'measurement' to 'pint' under the hood. Existing databases may need migration if using older field values.
fix
Run makemigrations and migrate after upgrade.
affects: >=3.0.0
deprecatedField 'MagnitudeField' is deprecated in favor of specific fields (DistanceField, WeightField, etc.).
fix
Use typed fields instead of MagnitudeField.
affects: >=3.0.0
gotchaUnit strings must match pint's syntax. 'km' works, 'kilometers' does not.
fix
Use standard pint units: 'km', 'mi', 'lb', 'kg', 'L', 'gal'.
affects: all
