I want to add a custom attributes to a Django model field
{{{
name = models.CharField(max_length=255, data_merge=True)
}}}
I want to do this so i can loop round my fields and see if this field is
set.
{{{
for field in Project._meta.get_fields(include_parents=False,
include_hidden=False):
if field.extra_info.data_merge:
// do something here
}}}
I haven't been the first to ask for this see
[https://stackoverflow.com/questions/20679057/adding-custom-attributes-to-
django-model-field]
I understand that you might say if you allow any attribute won't be good
as it could have error. So one could do
{{{
name = models.CharField(max_length=255, meta_data={'data_merge':True})
}}}
If you accept this enhancement I am happy to write a patch, test and
documentation. Please let me know.
