In Django, the structure of a model is defined using classes that inherit from django.db.models.Model. The main way is to declare model fields as class attributes with field types from django.db.models.
Example:
from django.db import models
class Product(models.Model):
name = models.CharField(max_length=100)
price = models.DecimalField(max_digits=10, decimal_places=2)
description = models.TextField(blank=True)
created_at = models.DateTimeField(auto_now_add=True)
You can also use:
- Meta class for configuring model behavior (e.g., table name, ordering).
- Abstract models for reusing fields and logic.
- Migrations for creating and modifying the database structure based on models.
Thus, the model structure is a class with fields describing the data that will be stored in the database.
