You're welcome. Personally, I've found it's easiest to get the JSON
formatted correctly by creating the model, syncing the DB, inserting some
dummy records, running
'dumpdata<https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/django-admin/#dumpdata-appname-appname-appname-model>'
against the table, and then copying the printed JSON into initial_data.json
so that next time you build your data is all there.
