Adding foreignKey widget to django-import-export

I\'m trying to import data to one of my models, but it\'s failing because I\'m trying to upload the foreignKey Id, not the iterated number that import-export creates.

Use the widget- works great.

school_id = fields.Field(column_name='school_id', attribute='Sol', widget=widgets.ForeignKeyWidget(Sol, 'school_id'))
