Django debugging: how to pretty print an object in template

Question

In Django i want to know how to see the full objects which may have nested objects like model, formset etc in template as html or <pre> element

Is it possible.

Because it will help me to debug and check the results.

Have a look at [Iterate over model instance field names and values in template](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/2170228) — art, Oct 05 '18 at 13:06

I just came up on that question that hasn't the right answer which is using the special built-in template filter pprint.

# in your template

{{ my_value | pprint }}

As said in the docstring, it helps, really.
