How can I create prettier fixtures with manage.py dumpdata?

django, django-fixtures

Solution

You can try:

python manage.py dumpdata --indent=2

it will be easier to read.

Problem

I'm trying to get my Django fixtures printed in a prettier way. I've outputting the fixtures: `python manage.py dumpdata >> fixture_app.json` This creates a file with 1000's of characters all on one line. When I try to view the file with my Text Editor( TextMate ), the Editor hangs. Is there anyway that the fixtures can be exported in a prettier way using multiple lines?
