Note the settings/dev.py
instead of one settings.py
file and the script.py
in my_app
in the following Django(1.4.3) project:
.
├── my_project
│ ├── my_app
│ │ ├── __init__.py
│ │ ├── models.py
│ │ ├── tests.py
│ │ ├── views.py
│ │ └── script.py
│ ├── __init__.py
│ ├── settings
│ │ ├── dev.py
│ │ ├── __init__.py
│ │ └── prod.py
│ ├── urls.py
│ └── wsgi.py
├── manage.py
└── requirements.txt
When I only had one settings.py
file in place of the settings folder I was able to run the following script without any errors :
script.py:
###################################################################
# set up for making it possible to run a model query from my script.
###################################################################
import os
import sys
sys.path.append(os.path.abspath(os.path.join(os.path.dirname(__file__), os.path.pardir)))
from django.core.management import setup_environ
import settings
setup_environ(settings)
####################################################################
from my_app.models import MyModel
all_entries = MyModel.objects.all()
Btw, I got that from the second approach in this article , my setup is a few lines longer because my script.py
is in the my_app
folder instead of directly under the my_project
folder.
Because I am now using settings/dev.py instead
of settings.py
I changed the last two lines of my setup in my script to the following:
import settings.dev
import setup_environ(settings.dev)
But when I run my script now I get this error:

Why is this error occurring? How can I run my script in Django with settings/dev.py
instead of settings.py
?
If you're looking to just run a script in the django environment, then the simplest way to accomplish this is to create a ./manage.py
subcommand, like this
from django.core.management.base import BaseCommand
from my_app.models import MyModel
class Command(BaseCommand):
help = 'runs your code in the django environment'
def handle(self, *args, **options):
all_entries = MyModel.objects.all()
for entry in all_entries:
self.stdout.write('entry "%s"' % entry)
The docs are quite helpful with explaining this.
However, you can specify a settings file to run with using
$ django-admin.py runserver --settings=settings.dev
which will run the test server using the settings in dev
however, I fear your problems are more deep seated than simply that. I wouldn't recommend ever changing the manage.py
file as this can lead to inconsistencies and future headaches.
Note also that dev.py
should be a complete settings file if you are to do this. I would personally recommend a structure like this:
|-settings
| |- __init__.py
| |- base.py
| |- dev.py
| |- prod.py
and keep all the general settings in your base.py
and change the first line of your dev.py
etc to something like
# settings/dev.py
from .base import *
DEBUG = True
...
If you're just looking to test things out, why not try
$ ./manage.py shell
or with your dev settings
$ django-admin.py shell --settings=settings.dev
as this will set all the OS environment variables, settings.py
for you, and then you can test / debug with
>>> from my_app.models import MyModel
>>> all_entries = MyModel.objects.all()
>>> for entry in all_entries:
... print entry
