Hello (again),
seems my previous message got eaten up, so I'll try a repost :
I've done a small app that I use to inspect models, it lives here:
https://github.com/magopian/django-inspect-model
I'm afraid this isn't rocket science, and is probably very ugly. I'm using
the "inspect" module from
(That's when somebody jumps into the conversation and feel as if he's half

Let me know how I can help.

Hi all !
So this might be a stupid idea, or it might have been answered
before ... actually it seems so obvious to me that you have probably
thought of it before and rejected it !!! But let's try ...
I was wondering, why isn't there a user API for introspecting models ?
