HStoreDict.__unicode__() returns empty string when dict is empty #71

Closed montegoode closed 9 years ago

montegoode commented 9 years ago

Don't know if this is a bug, but the when an HStoreDict does not have any elements in it, the unicode method returns '' rather than '{}'. The main manifestation of this is under django-rest-framework - the browsable api will not render an empty dict in the HTML Form for user editing even though the model field has been initialized with an empty dict (and not a null).

Thank you for reporting this. I'll look into it later today as I'm going to issue a new release soon and I might include this improvement in it.

Bytheway, did you know about django-rest-framework-hstore? https://github.com/djangonauts/django-rest-framework-hstore

Fantastic! Thanks for fixing it - pulled the new version and it works like a charm. And yes, I know about DRF-hstore - I'm using that as well! :)
