Hi Jacob,

OK. But the peculiar thing is that I'm almost certain that I had it
working before (2 months ago) with the command:
str_datadump = management.call_command('dumpdata', str_application,
format='json', indent=2)
Apparently, things have changed since then, and if this is expected
behavior, I have to adhere to it.
I found a (somewhat silly) workaround by calling manage.py as a shell
command within my own script:
str_shell_command = './manage.py dumpdata ' + str_application + ' > '
+ str_output_file + ' --format=json --indent=2'
bool_result = commands.getstatusoutput(str_shell_command)

Aha, but this seems to be an unnecessary advanced way to do a simple
thing as just dump the contents of a whole application. But I see that
you may do narrower model selections with this command, so it's a good
tip for future use.
Thanks for your help,
Ulf
