class TruncMonth(expression, output_field=None, tzinfo=None, **extra) [source]
-
kind = 'month'
These are logically equivalent to Trunc('date_field', kind). They truncate all parts of the date up to kind which allows grouping or filtering dates with less precision. expression can have an output_field of either DateField or DateTimeField.
Since DateFields don’t have a time component, only Trunc subclasses that deal with date-parts can be used with DateField:

>>> start3 = datetime(2015, 12, 31, 17, 5, 27, 999, tzinfo=timezone.utc)
>>> Experiment.objects.create(start_datetime=start1, start_date=start1.date())
