Description

I think django.contrib.postgres.forms.jsonb.JSONField should be modified to display data in a more user-friendly way.

I am currently working around it with the following code, but I can't see any reason this shouldn't be the default behaviour. I'm happy to open a pull request if this is deemed useful.

import json

from django.contrib.postgres.forms.jsonb import InvalidJSONInput, JSONField


class PrettyJSONField(JSONField):

    def prepare_value(self, value):
        if isinstance(value, InvalidJSONInput):
            return value

        return json.dumps(
            value,
            indent=4,
            sort_keys=True,
            separators=(',', ': '),
            ensure_ascii=False,
        )

Hi,

IMHO it is a good idea.

Assign the ticket to yourself and do the PR.
