Problem
In Django 5.0 field choices seem to be always lists, even when defined as Choices. In Django 4.3.9 it seems to be working as expected.
Environment
- Django Model Utils version: 4.5.0
- Django version: 5.0
- Python version: 3.10
- Other libraries used, if any:
Code examples
from model_utils import Choices
class MyClass
my_field = models.CharField(
choices=Choices(("M", "Male", "MALE"), ("F", "Female", "FEMALE"))
)Django 4.2.11
from models import MyModel
type(MyModel._meta.get_field("my_field").choices)<class 'model_utils.choices.Choices'>
MyModel._meta.get_field("my_field").choicesChoices(("M", "Male", "MALE"), ("F", "Female", "FEMALE"))Django 5.0
from models import MyModel
type(MyModel._meta.get_field("my_field").choices)MyModel._meta.get_field("my_field").choices[("M", "MALE"), ("F", "FEMALE")]This raises an error
TypeError: list indices must be integers or slices, not str
when trying to
MyModel._meta.get_field("my_field").choices["M"]
