Readonly text field in Flask-Admin ModelView

Question

How can I make a field on a ModelView readonly?

class MyModelView(BaseModelView):
    column_list = (\'name\', \'last_name\', \'email\')

When you are rendering the field in your Jinja template, just pass in disabled=true if WTForms doesn't recognise the kwarg, it just passes it to be an attribute to the html element.

{{ form.example(disabled=True) }}
