Prefilling the database w/ yaml

Install pyyaml

sudo pip install pyyaml

To save the database in yaml format:

./manage.py dumpdata --format=yaml

or to automatically load the next time the database is synched:

./manage.py dumpdata --format=yaml > fixtures/initial_data.yaml

After all, I prefer the default json format.

./manage.py dumpdata -n --indent=2 > fixtures/initial_data.json
