This is a version of [http://djangosnippets.org/snippets/2258/](http://djangosnippets.org/snippets/2258/) that should work with special chars (e.g. quotes) in json data.
I found model definitions with large number of fields with long help_text unreadable and feel that help_text doesn't really belong to field definition. With this snippet help_text attributes can live outside field definitions in inner HelpText class so field definitions become shorter and more readable. Usage: from django.db import models import readable_models class MyModel(models.Model): __metaclass__ = readable_models.ModelBase name = models.CharField('Name', max_length=30) address = models.CharField('Address', max_length=255) # ... long list of fields class HelpText: name = 'The name ...' address = 'Example: <very verbose example is here>'
