+UrlsafeTokenField
+-----------------
+
+A ``CharField`` subclass that provides random token generating using
+python's ``secrets.token_urlsafe`` as default value.
+
+If ``editable`` is set to false the field will not be displayed in the admin
+or any other ModelForm, default is False.
+
+``max_length`` specifies the maximum length of the token. The default value is 128.

+
+
+You can provide your custom token generator using the ``factory`` argument.
+``factory`` should be callable. It will raise ``TypeError`` if it is not callable.
+``factory`` is called with ``max_length`` argument to generate the token, and should
+return a string of specified maximum length.
