Django Quotas


A robust, extensible quotas and plan management library for Django applications. This package provides a flexible framework for defining, assigning, and tracking quotas (limits) for users, accounts, or any custom entity in your Django project.

Features

  • Strictly typed, modular codebase with clear separation between core logic, database implementations, and utilities
  • Abstract base classes and DTOs for easy extension
  • Default and database-specific implementations provided
  • Supports hourly, daily, monthly, and total quota buckets
  • Pluggable quota models and account models via Django settings
  • Utilities for dynamic model/class loading
  • Designed for integration with Django 5.x and Python 3.11/3.12

Installation

pip install django-quotas

Or, if using Poetry:

poetry add django-quotas

Quickstart

  1. Add to INSTALLED_APPS (to use standard Quota model and database storage backend):

    INSTALLED_APPS = [
        # ...
        'django_quotas',
        'django_quotas.defaults',
        'django_quotas.backends.db'
    ]
    
  2. Configure (optional): You can override default models and table prefixes in your Django settings:

    DJANGO_QUOTAS_TABLE_PREFIX = 'myquotas'  # default: 'django_quotas'
    DJANGO_QUOTAS_QUOTA_MODEL_NAME = 'myapp.MyQuotaModel'  # default: 'django_quotas.defaults.QuotaModel'
    DJANGO_QUOTAS_QUOTA_RELATED_ACCOUNT_MODEL_NAME = 'auth.User'  # or your custom user/account model
    
  3. Run migrations:

    python manage.py migrate
    
  4. Assign quotas: Use the provided models or extend them to assign quotas to users/accounts.

Configuration

All configuration is done via Django settings. See src/django_quotas/config.py for all available options.

  • DJANGO_QUOTAS_TABLE_PREFIX: Prefix for all quota-related tables.
  • DJANGO_QUOTAS_QUOTA_MODEL_NAME: Dotted path to the quota model.
  • DJANGO_QUOTAS_RELATED_ACCOUNT_MODEL: Dotted path to the related account/user model.

API Overview

Core Data Structures

  • QuotaBucket: Enum for supported buckets (hourly, daily, monthly, total)
  • ValuePerBucket: Dataclass holding quota values for each bucket
  • QuotaStatus, QuotaStats, QuotaUseForBucket, Quota, QuotaUsage: DTOs for quota management

Abstract Service

  • QuotaService: Abstract base class for quota management logic
  • QuotaExceededError: Exception raised when a quota is exceeded

Models

  • BaseQuotaModel: Abstract base model for quotas
  • DefaultQuotaModel: Default implementation for quota assignment
  • QuotaUsageModel: Tracks quota usage per account/feature/time

Utilities

  • get_model_by_name(model_name: str): Load a Django model by dotted name
  • get_class_by_name(dotted_path: str): Import a class by dotted path
  • datetime_now(): Get current UTC datetime

Extending & Customization

  • Custom Quota Models: Inherit from BaseQuotaModel and register via settings.
  • Custom Account Models: Set DJANGO_QUOTAS_RELATED_ACCOUNT_MODEL to your user/account model.
  • Custom Quota Logic: Implement your own QuotaService subclass.
