Getting error while encrypting fields in django model

[Sagar Bhadarka]

Hello,
I am trying to do encryption on the fields that I have in my django model.
But I'm getting error. below is the code and library that I used.
I used python-3.6.4, django-2.0.7 and django-cryptography2.3
code:-
from django_cryptography.fields import encrypt


class Users(models.Model):
username = encrypt(models.CharField(max_length=25, blank=False))

this is the error I'm getting
Unsupported lookup 'iexact' for EncryptedCharField or join on the field not
permitted.

Is this the correct method to do it? If is there any other easy and more
efficient method available please share.

I refer this example from here.
