Dear Django Users, I have a newbie queston about extending Djangos Field Types.
Obviously the Django field types provide more semantics than the basic database datatypes. Thus I assume that whenever there is a new type of field which does not fit in the given categories, it is a good idea to define such a new datatype. Correct? Example: I would like to model an ISIN code. The ISIN code is a 12- character alpha-numerical code for financial instruments, like stocks, bonds, etc with an internal structure including a check-digit. Now I can model it with isin = models.CharField(maxlength=12) but I would prefer something like isin = mymodels.IsinNumber() because I would assume that then I can define the db types, the widgets and standard validators. Can someone point me in the right direction?
