[Django]-NameError: name PositiveSmallIntegerField is not defined

Throwing this in here because I found myself with the same error, creating a model for a
song, too!

from django.db import models

class Track(models.Model):
  release  = models.ForeignKey('Release', on_delete=models.CASCADE)
  position = models.PositiveSmallIntegerField()
  number   = PositiveSmallIntegerField()
  name     = models.CharField(max_length=100)
  length   = models.DurationField()

There is a slight difference, here. I left out the namespace of models. before my PositiveSmallIntegerField. It looks like you didn’t do that, above, but maybe someone else with a similar error will made my mistake, too.

Here was my stacktrace:
