Glad I'm not crazy :-) I've submitted a ticket as you suggested here: http://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/9549 I just hope my explanation wasn't too cryptic... Django looks for a file called initial_data.* in each of the > <app>/fixture directories, plus each of the directories mentioned in > settings.FIXTURE_DIRS, plus the current working directory. The same > rules apply for any other fixture name. So - if you can currently load > initial_data.json, renaming it bootstrap.json is all you need to do. > Django's fixture loader doesn't use directory names as part of the > lookup scheme unless explicitly instructed to do so as part of the > settings.FIXTURE_DIRS option. Unless you particularly want to have > your fixtures in separate directories, there is no need to move > initial_data into a different directory. > Thats good to know, I will make that change.
