django-admin 命令在 Mac OS 中不起作用

Question

I started Django in Mac OS and after installing Django using pip, I tried to initiated a new project using the command django-admin startproject mysite . I get the error -bash: django-admin: command not found . I make quick search in Google and haven't get any solution that works.

How to start a new project using Django using django-admin?

Answer 1

I solved the issue after reading a webpage about the mentioned issue.

1. In the Python shell, write the following,

   >> import django >> django.__file__ >> django also works

It will provide the installation location of django.

2. Change the path to the new path /usr/local/bin/django-admin.py ,

   sudo ln -s the complete path of django-admin.py /usr/local/bin/django-admin.py

In Mac OS, The call needs to be django-admin.py startproject mysite than django-admin startproject mysite

Answer 2

尝试以下操作：

django-admin.py startproject mysite

Answer 3

First install Django, lets assume you have python3.7 and want to install django 2.0.3, in this case using pip3.7 to install

sudo pip3.7 install django==2.0.3

now try to see if django-admin.py is installed using

ls /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.7/lib/python3.7/site-packages/django/bin

If you see django-admin.py just link it to the /usr/local/bin using this command

ln -s /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.7/lib/python3.7/site-packages/django/bin /usr/local/bin/

Then you could run this command to create new python project

django-admin startproject mysite

Answer 4

您需要将 django 添加到路径变量中，然后重新启动终端。

Answer 5

I know I'm jumping in a little late, but my installations seem to all reside away from /usr/local/bin/... . What worked for me was adding an export path in bash_profile for my django installation.

This also made me realize that it was installed globally. From what I've heard, it's better to install django locally within venv as you work on different projects. That way each virtual environment can contain its own versions and dependencies for django (and whatever else you're using). Big thanks to @Arefe.

Answer 6

pip install django 

后

django-admin startproject nameProject

Answer 7

On mac, try to uninstall it via python -m pip uninstall Django , then you get the actual path to django-admin , then you can do chmod +x /Users/pano/.pyenv/versions/3.9.5/bin/django-admin

 $ python -m pip uninstall Django Found existing installation: Django 4.0.6 Uninstalling Django-4.0.6: Would remove: /Users/pano/.pyenv/versions/3.9.5/bin/django-admin /Users/pano/.pyenv/versions/3.9.5/lib/python3.9/site-packages/Django-4.0.6.dist-info/* Proceed (Y/n)? Y Successfully uninstalled Django-4.0.6

Answer 8

try this. this should work for you with no problem.

pip3 install django

python3 -m django startproject PROJECTNAME

you can use python and pip command without mentioning 3 either.

Answer 9

In my case, i was forgot to activate the virtual environment.

pipenv shell
