[FIXED] Making complex model without database Django

Issue

On django 3

When I need data without real database(like mysql), I can use m.IntegerChoices

This CallType never changes so IntegerChoices is suitable.

from django.db import models as m
class CallType(m.IntegerChoices):
    PULL = 1 
    PUSH = 2

class BaseCall(models.Model):
    class Meta:
        db_table = 't_BaseCall'

    call_type = m.PositiveSmallIntegerField(
        choices=CallType.choices, default=CallType.PULL)

Now I want to expand CallType more complex.

class CallType(m.IntegerChoices):
    PULL = {"number":1,"name":"pulling"}
    PUSH = {"number":2,"name":"pushing"}

What practice should I use?

I am afraid IntegerChoices is not suitable for this case.

Solution

To add labels to Django enumeration types, pass tuples to each member where the first element is the value and second element is the custom label

class CallType(m.IntegerChoices):
    PULL = 1, "pulling"
    PUSH = 2, "pushing"
