I am trying to get a list of all existing model fields and properties for a given object. Is there a clean way to instrospect an object so that I can get a dict of fields and properties.
class MyModel(Model)
url = models.TextField()
def _get_location(self):
return "%s/jobs/%d"%(url, self.id)
location = property(_get_location)
What I want is something that returns a dict that looks like this:
{
'id' : 1,
'url':'http://foo',
'location' : 'http://foo/jobs/1'
}
I can use model._meta.fields to get the model fields, but this doesn't give me things that are properties but not real DB fields.
