What is the DEFAULT maximum length of TextField Django?

I want to know what is the maximum length of TextField in Django models. I know they cannot limit maximum length but I want to know the real maximum length of the TextField type. Please help me solve this question.

Solution

  • The models.TextField(...)'s maximum size purely relies on the database you are using. If you are using MYSQL, it uses the longtext data type to store the content, which can hold up to 4 Gigabytes
