How to create Django FormWizard for one Model?

I have Django Model with many fields which user must fill. If I'll create one ModelForm for this Model it will be big enough for one form. I want to split it using FormWizard. I think it's possible first to create forms dynamically and then create FormWizard using them.

Is this good approach or is there any better way?

To me it seems fine.

The approach for creating partial forms is written in the docs.

In short:

class PartialAuthorForm(ModelForm):
    class Meta:
        model = Author
        fields = ('name', 'title')

class PartialAuthorForm(ModelForm):
    class Meta:
        model = Author
        exclude = ('birth_date',)

Dynamic way of doing this would be:

def gimme_my_form(field_tuple):
    class MyForm(ModelForm):
        class Meta:
            model = MyModel
            fields = field_tuple
    return MyForm

Eventually you can also parametrize the model this way.
