Displays nested lists / dicts / tuples in an aligned hierarchy to make debugging easy. Accepts all variable types, including nested lists with any mixture of tuples / dictionaries / lists / numbers / strings. Analogous to the PHP print_r($var) function.
This is a modification of Django 1.3's transaction.commit_on_success() decorator and context manager. It's inspired by snippet [1343](http://djangosnippets.org/snippets/1343/) which unfortunately don't work in current Django neither as a context manager. In my junior projects it works fine but I've not tested in critical projects yet! YMMV ! How it works: it simply counts the nesting level and does the real transaction enter/exit only on first call and last call respectively (code copied from Django's commit_on_success() ). It use thread local storage to save the per-thread nesting level count safely. To use it just put the code in a file (i.e. nested_commit_on_success.py) and import and use it exacly as normal commit_on_success(), both as decorator (@nested_commit_success) or context manager (with nested_commit_on_success(): ). Any feedback is welcome!
