inflect_dj

NAME

inflect_dj.py - Generate plurals for use with Django.

VERSION

This document describes version 0.2.0 of inflect_dj.py

INSTALLATION

pip install inflect_dj

easy_install inflect_dj

DESCRIPTION

@verbose_name_plural —

Decorator for the Django models.Model classes.

Decorating a child class of model.Model with @verbose_name_plural will ensure that the plural form of the model name will be rendered correctly.

It uses the module inflect.py to determine the correct pluralisation.

USAGE

Using @verbose_name_plural when specifying a verbose_name for the model:
from django.db import models
from inflect_dj import verbose_name_plural

@verbose_name_plural
class mycategory(models.Model):
    [definition of the model]
    class Meta:
        verbose_name = 'category'
        [rest of the Meta class definition]
The plural will be displayed correctly as categories.
Using @verbose_name_plural without specifying verbose_name:
from django.db import models
from inflect_dj import verbose_name_plural

@verbose_name_plural
class category(models.Model):
    [definition of the model]
    class Meta:
        [class Meta definition]
The plural will be displayed correctly as categories, as this is the plural of the class name.

Earlier versions of Python

If you are using a Python version earlier than 2.6 you cannot use class decorators and must explicitly redefine the class with a call to verbose_name_plural():

from django.db import models
from inflect_dj import verbose_name_plural

class mycategory(models.Model):
    [definition of the model]
    class Meta:
        verbose_name = 'category'
        [rest of the Meta class definition]
mycategory = verbose_name_plural(mycategory)
