Notes on mysociety’s fork

mysociety/django-popolo is a fork of this project where integer IDs are used instead of slugs.

Our packages, since version 1.1 also uses numerical ids as primary keys for all entities. Slugs are available as non-primary fields, for the 4 main classes (Person, Organization, Post, Membership). Slugs are used through the Permalinkable behavior, that adds the slug field to the class, populating it according to rules defined in each class.
