What is the max size of 'max_length' in Django?

Question

This is my model:

class Position(models.Model):
    map = models.ForeignKey(Map,primary_key=True)
    #members=models.CharField(max_length=200)
    LatLng = mode         


        

Answer 1

That depends on the database backend. The Django DB Docs will tell you, that max_length=255 is guaranteed to work always.

If you need something of the amount you've specified in your question, I'd suggest to use a TextField.
