The “local flavor” add-ons

Following its “batteries included” philosophy, Django comes with assorted pieces of code that are useful for particular countries or cultures. These are called the “local flavor” add-ons and live in the django.contrib.localflavor package.

Inside that package, country- or culture-specific code is organized into subpackages, named using ISO 3166 country codes.

Most of the localflavor add-ons are localized form components deriving from the forms framework – for example, a USStateField that knows how to validate U.S. state abbreviations, and a FISocialSecurityNumber that knows how to validate Finnish social security numbers.

To use one of these localized components, just import the relevant subpackage. For example, here’s how you can create a form with a field representing a French telephone number:

from django import forms
from django.contrib.localflavor.fr.forms import FRPhoneNumberField

class MyForm(forms.Form):
    my_french_phone_no = FRPhoneNumberField()

Supported countries

Countries currently supported by localflavor are:

The django.contrib.localflavor package also includes a generic subpackage, containing useful code that is not specific to one particular country or culture. Currently, it defines date, datetime and split datetime input fields based on those from forms, but with non-US default formats. Here’s an example of how to use them:

from django import forms
from django.contrib.localflavor import generic

class MyForm(forms.Form):
    my_date_field = generic.forms.DateField()

Internationalization of localflavor

Localflavor has its own catalog of translations, in the directory django/contrib/localflavor/locale, and it’s not loaded automatically like Django’s general catalog in django/conf/locale. If you want localflavor’s texts to be translated, like form fields error messages, you must include django.contrib.localflavor in the INSTALLED_APPS setting, so the internationalization system can find the catalog, as explained in How Django discovers translations.

Adding flavors

We’d love to add more of these to Django, so please create a ticket with any code you’d like to contribute. One thing we ask is that you please use Unicode objects (u'mystring') for strings, rather than setting the encoding in the file. See any of the existing flavors for examples.

Localflavor and backwards compatibility

As documented in our API stability policy, Django will always attempt to make django.contrib.localflavor reflect the officially gazetted policies of the appropriate local government authority. For example, if a government body makes a change to add, alter, or remove a province (or state, or county), that change will be reflected in Django’s localflavor in the next stable Django release.

When a backwards-incompatible change is made (for example, the removal or renaming of a province) the localflavor in question will raise a warning when that localflavor is imported. This provides a runtime indication that something may require attention.

However, once you have addressed the backwards compatibility (for example, auditing your code to see if any data migration is required), the warning serves no purpose. The warning can then be supressed. For example, to suppress the warnings raised by the Indonesian localflavor you would use the following code:

import warnings
warnings.filterwarnings('ignore',
                        category=RuntimeWarning,
                        module='django.contrib.localflavor.id')
