Hi, Is it possible to add a bitmask field to allow multiple choices for small set of options in lieu of ManyToManyField?
For some cases, ManyToManyField is overkill. e.g. Select several days of week to indicate open days for stores while 7 boolean fields are too frustrated. Benefits to these cases: - Simpler database structure as 2 tables less - Better query performance (no joining tables). Disqus opened source their implementation ( https://github.com/disqus/django-bitfield ), but it supports neither Python 3 nor 1.7. I hope this field could get official supports. Syntax draft: https://github.com/chicheng/deps/blob/bitmaskfield/drafts/BitMaskField.md Chi -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django developers" group.
