Description

In django.db.backends there is convert_values function. I have declared custom field which corresponds to Postgresql interval type. By default convert_values assumes that unknown type is float. Is it possible to change this behaviour? Like that (look at return):

    def convert_values(self, value, field):
        """Coerce the value returned by the database backend into a consistent type that
        is compatible with the field type.
        """
        internal_type = field.get_internal_type()
        if internal_type == 'DecimalField':
            return value
        elif internal_type and internal_type.endswith('IntegerField') or internal_type == 'AutoField':
            return int(value)
        elif internal_type in ('DateField', 'DateTimeField', 'TimeField'):
            return value
        # No field, or the field isn't known to be a decimal or integer
        # Default to a float 
        #return float(value)
        #Not to a float. Just leave as is
        return value
