A full example with dehydrate:

class UserResource(ModelResource):
    fullname = fields.CharField(readonly=True)

    class Meta:
        queryset = auth_models.User.objects.all()
        resource_name = 'user'

    def dehydrate_fullname(self, bundle):
        return u"{first_name} {last_name}".format(
            first_name=bundle.obj.first_name, last_name=bundle.obj.last_name)
