Should view logic be abstracted to other modules?

I have a handful of functions in some of my views that could easily be abstracted away. Looking through the Django Docs, I couldn't find much info on where is the best place to keep them.

So should it go:

1: In the view, just abstracted away into another function.

or

2: In a new module within the same Django application.

It would depend on what your views do, if they verify form data, then use django-forms to handle the form data, and that can make your code much cleaner. You can take a look at them here.

If you do a lot of things with models, just create a django ModelManager to handle the queries that you always do in your views.

However, if you think that there is a lot of boiler-plate code that does not fit into all of these, then why not use django CBVs to get rid of having to write boiler-plate code all over again.

It all comes down to what you want.
