A string of the form ``YYYY-MM-DDTHH:mm:ss.sssZ`` or
``YYYY-MM-DDTHH:mm:ss.sss+HH:MM`` as defined in `ECMA-262`_.
:class:`~datetime.date`
A string of the form ``YYYY-MM-DD`` as defined in `ECMA-262`_.
:class:`~datetime.time`
A string of the form ``HH:MM:ss.sss`` as defined in `ECMA-262`_.
:class:`~decimal.Decimal`, ``Promise`` (``django.utils.functional.lazy()`` objects), :class:`~uuid.UUID`
