Question

I try to implement enumartion structure in django such that

class Status():
PENDING = 0
CONFIRMED = 1
DENIED = 2

STATUS =(
    (PENDING,_("salary_status_pending")),
    (CONFIRMED,_("salary_status_confirmed")),
    (DENIED,_("salary_status_denied")),
)

and in my model I use it like

class MyModel(models.Model):
    status = models.IntegerField(null=False, choices=Status.STATUS)

It works fine and if I want to get the label of enum field in my template I use
{{ mymodel.get_status_display }} and it writes the label _('key..') in my enum field instead of number which is explained in Django documents

However, what if I want to get the label in my view.py ?
I want to write a code below and it should give me the label of enum field instead of number

Status.CONFIRMED 

How can I achive this ?

Thanks
