Getting started

Step 1. Register a model:

eav.register(Supplier)

or with decorators:

from eav.decorators import register_eav

@register_eav
class Supplier(models.Model):
    ...

Step 2. Create an attribute:

Attribute.objects.create(name='City', datatype=Attribute.TYPE_TEXT)

Step 3. That’s it! You’re ready to go:

supplier.eav.city = 'London'
supplier.save()

Supplier.objects.filter(eav__city='London')
# = <EavQuerySet [<Supplier: Supplier object (1)>]>
