Writing custom django-admin commands
|
|
====================================
|
|
|
|
.. versionadded:: 1.0
|
|
|
|
Applications can register their own actions with ``manage.py``. For example,
|
|
you might want to add a ``manage.py`` action for a Django app that you're
|
|
distributing.
|
|
|
|
To do this, just add a ``management/commands`` directory to your application.
|
|
Each Python module in that directory will be auto-discovered and registered as
|
|
a command that can be executed as an action when you run ``manage.py``::
|
|
|
|
blog/
|
|
__init__.py
|
|
models.py
|
|
management/
|
|
__init__.py
|
|
commands/
|
|
__init__.py
|
|
explode.py
|
|
views.py
|
|
|
|
In this example, the ``explode`` command will be made available to any project
|
|
that includes the ``blog`` application in ``settings.INSTALLED_APPS``.
|
|
|
|
The ``explode.py`` module has only one requirement -- it must define a class
|
|
called ``Command`` that extends ``django.core.management.base.BaseCommand``.
|
|
|
|
For more details on how to define your own commands, look at the code for the
|
|
existing ``django-admin.py`` commands, in ``/django/core/management/commands``. |
