In addition to these attributes, custom manager methods are available for some of the objects provided by diplomat.LanguagesThe ISOLanguage model is a wrapper around the pycountry.db.Language model. >>> from diplomat.models import ISOLanguage >>> aragonese = ISOLanguage.objects.get(alpha2='an') >>> aragonese.alpha2 u'an' >>> aragonese.bibliographic u'arg' >>> aragonese.terminology u'arg' >>> aragonese.name u'Aragonese'In addition, it provides a custom model manager. >>> from diplomat.models import ISOLanguage >>> all_languages = ISOLanguage.objects.all() >>> basic_languages = ISOLanguage.objects.basic() >>> usable_languages = ISOLanguage.objects.usable() >>> all_languages.count() > usable_languages.count() > basic_languages.count() True >>> all() False >>> all() True >>> all_languages.filter(terminology='zxx').count() 1 >>> usable_languages.filter(terminology='zxx').count() 0CountriesThe ISOCountry model is a wrapper around the pycountry.db.Country model. >>> from diplomat.models import ISOCountry >>> germany = ISOCountry.objects.get(alpha2='DE') >>> germany.alpha2 u'DE' >>> germany.alpha3 u'DEU' >>> germany.numeric u'276' >>> germany.name u'Germany' >>> germany.official_name u'Federal Republic of Germany'Field UsageDiplomat provides a series of simple form fields for selecting country and language objects.
