Installation
----------
Install::
pip install django-sa
Implementation Notes with Short Examples
----------
What happens when you try to run a script with django code in it?::
python backup.py
.. code-block:: python
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "backup.py", line 6, in <module>
↓
↓
↓
django.core.exceptions.ImproperlyConfigured: Requested setting DEFAULT_INDEX_TABLESPACE, but settings are not configured. You must either define the environment variable DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE or call settings.configure() before accessing settings.
django-sa way::
+ The script needs to be run from the project root directory
+ This uses the default django settings file which is in project_dir/settings.py
.. code-block:: python
from django_sa import setup_django
setup_django(__file__)
from community.models import Bot
bot = Bot.objects.get(pk=101)
bot.backup(async=True)
Using a different django settings file:
.. code-block:: python
from django_sa import setup_django
setup_django(__file__, 'my_project.settings.production')
from community.models import Bot
bot = Bot.objects.get(pk=101)
bot.backup(async=True)
* Version 0.1.
0.1 (2017-09-23)
++++++++++++++++++
* First release on PyPI.
