Overview

--------

DColumn is a Django plugin that lets the developer add columns to a model

dynamically. It does this in the same way that the admin uses an inline model.

Matter-of-fact that is exactly how the additional columns are displayed in

the admin. The only addition is that there is special JavaScript that

converts the column type to the type you have previously set it to.

This can be done, because any type of field can be represented as a string.

There are two methods on any model you define as a **Dcolumn** model that

does conversion in and out of the type you have set.

The highest version of Django that DColumn will work with Django 3.2.25 and 

Python 3.9 and above. The current code was tested with Django 3.2.25 and

Python 3.11.

.. warning::

   Version 2.0 is a partial rewrite of **Django DColumns** and is NOT

   backwards compatible with previous versions. It now needs to use fields

   defined in user forms. The latest releases of Django would not work

   with the old way Dcolumns had previously handled fields. This is

   actually better as it is now more consistent with how Django does

   things.

Provides

--------

1. Functionality to permit the addition of fields to a model through the

   admin.

2. Add pseudo models for static data objects.

3. The admin reflects all newly added fields in the correct type.
