Hi Eddilbert,

I'm the author of django-mutant. May I ask you what exactly you're trying to achieve with this application?

Creating new field should be as simple as importing a field definition subclass from a contrib.* application.

e.g.

from mutant.contrib.text import CharFieldDefinition

CharFieldDefinition.objects.create(model_def=<your_ModeDefinition_instance>, name='mycharfield', max_length=100)

Hi Simon,

Sorry for the delayed response,

I am trying to create a data collection system. i wanted the user to be able to create their models based on the data they want to collect.

i followed the tutorial and also tried the sample application from the tutorial but i got the following error.

Exception Type: TypeError Exception Value: __init__() takes at least 2 arguments (2 given)
But i think my biggest problem was i could not get a documentation for app explaining how to use.is there a tutorial or a better documentation Regards, I'm honored for your reply and though i did not understand how to use the app fully i liked it.
