access django model fields label and help_text

Question

I have something like this:

class ContactData(models.Model):
    name  = models.CharField(max_length=300, verbose_name=u"Name", help_text=u"Please enter your name...",null=True, blank=False)
    phone = models.CharField(max_length=300, verbose_name=u"Phone number", null=True, blank=False)

I would like to show a field's label and help_text in template (that is - just access it from view). Can this be done?

Answer 1

unicode(ContactData._meta.get_field('name').verbose_name)
unicode(ContactData._meta.get_field('name').help_text)

unicode(ContactData._meta.get_field('phone').verbose_name)
unicode(ContactData._meta.get_field('phone').help_text)
