Comment (by vmspike):
For now - no. DurationField is not in the list of officially supported
field types, docs say that some other fields can work as well but some of
them need additional work. Seems for other types `str()` method is called
by default. So DurationField support is just new feature for django-
hstore. I'm working on support of additional fields but not as the part of
django.
I've put `parse_duration()` patch here because I thought it can be useful
for django core itself. English specificity can be avoided using more
versatile regex like:
{{{
str_timedelta_duration_re = re.compile(
r'^'
r'(?:(?P<days>-?\d+) \w+, )?'
r'((?:(?P<hours>\d+):)(?=\d+:\d+))?'
r'(?:(?P<minutes>\d+):)?'
r'(?P<seconds>\d+)'
r'(?:\.(?P<microseconds>\d{1,6})\d{0,6})?'
r'$'
)
}}}
