django-birthday 0.1.4

Installation

pip install django-birthday

Usage

django-birthday provides a birthday.fields.BirthdayField model field type which is a subclass of django.db.models.DateField and thus has the same characteristics as that. It also internally adds a second field to your model holding the day of the year for that birthday, this is used for the extra functionality exposed by birthday.managers.BirthdayManager which you should use as the manager on your model.

A model could look like this:

from django.db import models
from django.conf import settings

from birthday import BirthdayField, BirthdayManager


class UserProfile(models.Model):
    user = models.ForeignKey(settings.AUTH_USER_MODEL)
    birthday = BirthdayField()

    objects = BirthdayManager()

Get all user profiles within the next 30 days:

UserProfile.objects.get_upcoming_birthdays()

Get all user profiles which have their birthday today:

UserProfile.objects.get_birthdays()

Or order the user profiles according to their birthday:

UserProfile.objects.order_by_birthday()
