Examples

Models

Abstract TimeStampedModel with date created/modified fields:

Use TimeStampedModel as base class for your model

from bananas.models import TimeStampedModel

class Book(TimeStampedModel):
    pass

the timestamps can be accessed on the model as

>>> book.date_created
>>> book.date_modified

ORM

New queryset.dicts() with field renaming through kwargs, and dot-dict style results:

from bananas.query import ExtendedQuerySet

class Book(TimeStampedModel):
    author = ForeignKey(Author)
    objects = Manager.from_queryset(ExtendedQuerySet)()

>>> book = Book.objects.dicts('id', author='author__name').first()
{'id': 1, 'author': 'Jonas'}
>>> book.author
'Jonas'

Admin

Custom django admin stylesheet.
