\fBdjango\-admin\fP is Django\(aqs command\-line utility for administrative tasks.
|
||
This document outlines all it can do.
|
||
.sp
|
||
In addition, \fBmanage.py\fP is automatically created in each Django project.
|
||
\fBmanage.py\fP is a thin wrapper around \fBdjango\-admin\fP that takes care of
|
||
several things for you before delegating to \fBdjango\-admin\fP:
|
||
.INDENT 0.0
|
||
.IP \(bu 2
|
||
It puts your project\(aqs package on \fBsys.path\fP\&.
|
||
.IP \(bu 2
|
||
It sets the \fBDJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE\fP environment variable so that
|
||
it points to your project\(aqs \fBsettings.py\fP file.
|
||
.IP \(bu 2
|
||
It calls \fBdjango.setup()\fP to initialize various internals of Django.
|
||
.UNINDENT
|
||
.sp
|
||
The \fBdjango\-admin\fP script should be on your system path if you installed
|
||
Django via its \fBsetup.py\fP utility. If it\(aqs not on your path, you can find it
|
||
in \fBsite\-packages/django/bin\fP within your Python installation. Consider
|
||
symlinking it from some place on your path, such as \fB/usr/local/bin\fP\&.
|
||
.sp
|
||
For Windows users, who do not have symlinking functionality available, you can
|
||
copy \fBdjango\-admin.exe\fP to a location on your existing path or edit the
|
||
\fBPATH\fP settings (under \fBSettings \- Control Panel \- System \- Advanced \-
|
||
Environment...\fP) to point to its installed location.
|
||
.sp
|
||
Generally, when working on a single Django project, it\(aqs easier to use
|
||
\fBmanage.py\fP than \fBdjango\-admin\fP\&. If you need to switch between multiple
|
||
Django settings files, use \fBdjango\-admin\fP with
|
||
\fBDJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE\fP or the \fI\%\-\-settings\fP command line
|
||
option.
|
||
.sp
|
||
The command\-line examples throughout this document use \fBdjango\-admin\fP to
|
||
be consistent, but any example can use \fBmanage.py\fP or \fBpython \-m django\fP
|
||
just as well.
|
||
.sp
|
||
\fBpython \-m django\fP was added.

.SS App names
|

Many commands take a list of "app names." An "app name" is the basename of
|

the package containing your models. For example, if your \fBINSTALLED_APPS\fP
|
||
contains the string \fB\(aqmysite.blog\(aq\fP, the app name is \fBblog\fP\&.

Uses the \fBsystem check framework\fP to inspect

the entire Django project for common problems.
|

.sp
|

The system check framework will confirm that there aren\(aqt any problems with
|

your installed models or your admin registrations. It will also provide warnings
|
||
of common compatibility problems introduced by upgrading Django to a new version.
|
||
Custom checks may be introduced by other libraries and applications.
|

.sp
|

By default, all apps will be checked. You can check a subset of apps by providing

The \fB\-\-deploy\fP option activates some additional checks that are only relevant
|

in a deployment setting.
|

.sp
|
||
You can use this option in your local development environment, but since your
|
||
local development settings module may not have many of your production settings,
|
||
you will probably want to point the \fBcheck\fP command at a different settings
|
||
module, either by setting the \fBDJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE\fP environment variable,
|
||
or by passing the \fB\-\-settings\fP option:

|

|

.SS What\(aqs a "fixture"?
|
||
.sp
|
||
A \fIfixture\fP is a collection of files that contain the serialized contents of
|
||
the database. Each fixture has a unique name, and the files that comprise the
|
||
fixture can be distributed over multiple directories, in multiple applications.
|
||
.sp
|
||
Django will search in three locations for fixtures:
|
||
.INDENT 0.0
|
||
.IP 1. 3
|
||
In the \fBfixtures\fP directory of every installed application
|
||
.IP 2. 3
|
||
In any directory named in the \fBFIXTURE_DIRS\fP setting
|
||
.IP 3. 3
|
||
In the literal path named by the fixture
|
||
.UNINDENT
|
||
.sp
|
||
Django will load any and all fixtures it finds in these locations that match
|
||
the provided fixture names.
|
||
.sp
|
||
If the named fixture has a file extension, only fixtures of that type
|
||
will be loaded. For example:
|
||
.INDENT 0.0
|
||
.INDENT 3.5
|
||
.sp
|
||
.nf
|
||
.ft C
|
||
django\-admin loaddata mydata.json
|
||
.ft P
|
||
.fi
|
||
.UNINDENT
|
||
.UNINDENT
|
||
.sp
|
||
would only load JSON fixtures called \fBmydata\fP\&. The fixture extension
|
||
must correspond to the registered name of a
|
||
serializer (e.g., \fBjson\fP or \fBxml\fP).
|
||
.sp
|
||
If you omit the extensions, Django will search all available fixture types
|
||
for a matching fixture. For example:
|
||
.INDENT 0.0
|
||
.INDENT 3.5
|
||
.sp
|
||
.nf
|
||
.ft C
|
||
django\-admin loaddata mydata
|
||
.ft P
|
||
.fi
|
||
.UNINDENT
|
||
.UNINDENT
|
||
.sp
|
||
would look for any fixture of any fixture type called \fBmydata\fP\&. If a fixture
|
||
directory contained \fBmydata.json\fP, that fixture would be loaded
|
||
as a JSON fixture.
|
||
.sp
|
||
The fixtures that are named can include directory components. These
|
||
directories will be included in the search path. For example:
|
||
.INDENT 0.0
|
||
.INDENT 3.5
|
||
.sp
|
||
.nf
|
||
.ft C
|
||
django\-admin loaddata foo/bar/mydata.json
|
||
.ft P
|
||
.fi
|
||
.UNINDENT
|
||
.UNINDENT
|
||
.sp
|
||
would search \fB<app_label>/fixtures/foo/bar/mydata.json\fP for each installed
|
||
application, \fB<dirname>/foo/bar/mydata.json\fP for each directory in
|
||
\fBFIXTURE_DIRS\fP, and the literal path \fBfoo/bar/mydata.json\fP\&.
|
||
.sp
|
||
When fixture files are processed, the data is saved to the database as is.
|
||
Model defined \fBsave()\fP methods are not called, and
|
||
any \fBpre_save\fP or
|
||
\fBpost_save\fP signals will be called with
|
||
\fBraw=True\fP since the instance only contains attributes that are local to the
|
||
model. You may, for example, want to disable handlers that access
|
||
related fields that aren\(aqt present during fixture loading and would otherwise
|
||
raise an exception:
|
||
.INDENT 0.0
|
||
.INDENT 3.5
|
||
.sp
|
||
.nf
|
||
.ft C
|
||
from django.db.models.signals import post_save
|
||
from .models import MyModel
|
||
|
||
def my_handler(**kwargs):
|
||
# disable the handler during fixture loading
|
||
if kwargs[\(aqraw\(aq]:
|
||
return
|
||
...
|
||
|
||
post_save.connect(my_handler, sender=MyModel)
|
||
.ft P
|
||
.fi
|
||
.UNINDENT
|
||
.UNINDENT
|
||
.sp
|
||
You could also write a simple decorator to encapsulate this logic:
|
||
.INDENT 0.0
|
||
.INDENT 3.5
|
||
.sp
|
||
.nf
|
||
.ft C
|
||
from functools import wraps
|
||
|
||
def disable_for_loaddata(signal_handler):
|
||
"""
|
||
Decorator that turns off signal handlers when loading fixture data.
|
||
"""
|
||
@wraps(signal_handler)
|
||
def wrapper(*args, **kwargs):
|
||
if kwargs[\(aqraw\(aq]:
|
||
return
|
||
signal_handler(*args, **kwargs)
|
||
return wrapper
|
||
|
||
@disable_for_loaddata
|
||
def my_handler(**kwargs):
|
||
...
|
||
.ft P
|
||
.fi
|
||
.UNINDENT
|
||
.UNINDENT
|
||
.sp
|
||
Just be aware that this logic will disable the signals whenever fixtures are
|
||
deserialized, not just during \fBloaddata\fP\&.
|
||
.sp
|
||
Note that the order in which fixture files are processed is undefined. However,
|
||
all fixture data is installed as a single transaction, so data in
|
||
one fixture can reference data in another fixture. If the database backend
|
||
supports row\-level constraints, these constraints will be checked at the
|
||
end of the transaction.
|
||
.sp
|
||
The \fI\%dumpdata\fP command can be used to generate input for \fBloaddata\fP\&.
|
||
.SS Compressed fixtures
|
||
.sp
|
||
Fixtures may be compressed in \fBzip\fP, \fBgz\fP, or \fBbz2\fP format. For example:
|
||
.INDENT 0.0
|
||
.INDENT 3.5
|
||
.sp
|
||
.nf
|
||
.ft C
|
||
django\-admin loaddata mydata.json
|
||
.ft P
|
||
.fi
|
||
.UNINDENT
|
||
.UNINDENT
|
||
.sp
|
||
would look for any of \fBmydata.json\fP, \fBmydata.json.zip\fP,
|
||
\fBmydata.json.gz\fP, or \fBmydata.json.bz2\fP\&. The first file contained within a
|
||
zip\-compressed archive is used.
|
||
.sp
|
||
Note that if two fixtures with the same name but different
|
||
fixture type are discovered (for example, if \fBmydata.json\fP and
|
||
\fBmydata.xml.gz\fP were found in the same fixture directory), fixture
|
||
installation will be aborted, and any data installed in the call to
|
||
\fBloaddata\fP will be removed from the database.
|
||

|

.IP "MySQL with MyISAM and fixtures"
|
||
.sp
|
||
The MyISAM storage engine of MySQL doesn\(aqt support transactions or
|
||
constraints, so if you use MyISAM, you won\(aqt get validation of fixture
|
||
data, or a rollback if multiple transaction files are found.

.SS Database\-specific fixtures
|

.sp
|
||
If you\(aqre in a multi\-database setup, you might have fixture data that
|
||
you want to load onto one database, but not onto another. In this
|
||
situation, you can add a database identifier into the names of your fixtures.
|
||
.sp
|
||
For example, if your \fBDATABASES\fP setting has a \(aqmaster\(aq database
|
||
defined, name the fixture \fBmydata.master.json\fP or
|
||
\fBmydata.master.json.gz\fP and the fixture will only be loaded when you

specify you want to load data into the \fBmaster\fP database.

The \fB\-\-fake\-initial\fP option can be used to allow Django to skip an app\(aqs
|
||
initial migration if all database tables with the names of all models created
|
||
by all \fBCreateModel\fP operations in that
|
||
migration already exist. This option is intended for use when first running
|
||
migrations against a database that preexisted the use of migrations. This
|
||
option does not, however, check for matching database schema beyond matching
|
||
table names and so is only safe to use if you are confident that your existing
|
||
schema matches what is recorded in your initial migration.

Starts a lightweight development Web server on the local machine. By default,

the server runs on port 8000 on the IP address \fB127.0.0.1\fP\&. You can pass in an
|

IP address and port number explicitly.
|

.sp
|

If you run this script as a user with normal privileges (recommended), you

This server uses the WSGI application object specified by the
|
||
\fBWSGI_APPLICATION\fP setting.
|
||
.sp
|
||
DO NOT USE THIS SERVER IN A PRODUCTION SETTING. It has not gone through
|
||
security audits or performance tests. (And that\(aqs how it\(aqs gonna stay. We\(aqre in
|
||
the business of making Web frameworks, not Web servers, so improving this
|
||
server to be able to handle a production environment is outside the scope of
|
||
Django.)
|
||
.sp
|
||
The development server automatically reloads Python code for each request, as
|
||
needed. You don\(aqt need to restart the server for code changes to take effect.
|
||
However, some actions like adding files don\(aqt trigger a restart, so you\(aqll
|
||
have to restart the server in these cases.
|
||
.sp
|
||
If you are using Linux and install \fI\%pyinotify\fP, kernel signals will be used to
|
||
autoreload the server (rather than polling file modification timestamps each
|
||
second). This offers better scaling to large projects, reduction in response
|
||
time to code modification, more robust change detection, and battery usage
|
||
reduction.
|
||
.sp
|
||
When you start the server, and each time you change Python code while the
|
||
server is running, the system check framework will check your entire Django
|
||
project for some common errors (see the \fI\%check\fP command). If any
|
||
errors are found, they will be printed to standard output.
|
||
.sp
|
||
You can run as many concurrent servers as you want, as long as they\(aqre on
|
||
separate ports. Just execute \fBdjango\-admin runserver\fP more than once.
|
||
.sp
|
||
Note that the default IP address, \fB127.0.0.1\fP, is not accessible from other
|
||
machines on your network. To make your development server viewable to other
|
||
machines on the network, use its own IP address (e.g. \fB192.168.2.1\fP) or
|
||
\fB0.0.0.0\fP or \fB::\fP (with IPv6 enabled).
|
||
.sp
|
||
You can provide an IPv6 address surrounded by brackets
|
||
(e.g. \fB[200a::1]:8000\fP). This will automatically enable IPv6 support.
|
||
.sp
|
||
A hostname containing ASCII\-only characters can also be used.
|
||
.sp
|
||
If the \fBstaticfiles\fP contrib app is enabled
|
||
(default in new projects) the \fI\%runserver\fP command will be overridden
|
||
with its own runserver command.
|
||
.sp

If \fI\%migrate\fP was not previously executed, the table that stores the

When the app template files are rendered with the Django template
|
||
engine (by default all \fB*.py\fP files), Django will also replace all
|
||
stray template variables contained. For example, if one of the Python files
|
||
contains a docstring explaining a particular feature related
|
||
to template rendering, it might result in an incorrect example.
|
||
.sp
|
||
To work around this problem, you can use the \fBtemplatetag\fP
|
||
templatetag to "escape" the various parts of the template syntax.

Creates a Django project directory structure for the given project name in

By default, the new directory contains \fBmanage.py\fP and a project package

details.
|
||
.sp
|

If only the project name is given, both the project directory and project
|
||
package will be named \fB<projectname>\fP and the project directory
|
||
will be created in the current working directory.
|
||
.sp
|
||
If the optional destination is provided, Django will use that existing

directory as the project directory, and create \fBmanage.py\fP and the project

As with the \fI\%startapp\fP command, the \fB\-\-template\fP option lets you

specify a directory, file path or URL of a custom project template. See the

\fI\%startapp\fP documentation for details of supported project template
|
||
formats.

Django will also accept URLs (\fBhttp\fP, \fBhttps\fP, \fBftp\fP) to compressed

fly.
|

.sp

For example, taking advantage of GitHub\(aqs feature to expose repositories as

The \fB\-\-parallel\fP option can be used to run tests in parallel in separate

tests significantly faster.
|

.sp
|

By default \fB\-\-parallel\fP runs one process per core according to
|

\fI\%multiprocessing.cpu_count()\fP\&. You can adjust the number of processes
|

either by providing it as the option\(aqs value, e.g. \fB\-\-parallel=4\fP, or by
|
||
setting the \fBDJANGO_TEST_PROCESSES\fP environment variable.
|

.sp
|

Django distributes test cases — \fI\%unittest.TestCase\fP subclasses — to
|
||
subprocesses. If there are fewer test cases than configured processes, Django
|
||
will reduce the number of processes accordingly.
|
||
.sp
|
||
Each process gets its own database. You must ensure that different test cases
|

don\(aqt access the same resources. For instance, test cases that touch the

filesystem should create a temporary directory for their own use.

\fBWARNING:\fP

.INDENT 0.0

.INDENT 3.5

When test parallelization is enabled and a test fails, Django may be

unable to display the exception traceback. This can make debugging

difficult. If you encounter this problem, run the affected test without
|
||
parallelization to see the traceback of the failure.
|

.sp
|

This is a known limitation. It arises from the need to serialize objects
|

in order to exchange them between processes. See

|

.SS Syntax coloring
|
||
.sp
|
||
The \fBdjango\-admin\fP / \fBmanage.py\fP commands will use pretty
|
||
color\-coded output if your terminal supports ANSI\-colored output. It
|
||
won\(aqt use the color codes if you\(aqre piping the command\(aqs output to
|
||
another program.
|
||
.sp
|
||
Under Windows, the native console doesn\(aqt support ANSI escape sequences so by
|
||
default there is no color output. But you can install the \fI\%ANSICON\fP
|
||
third\-party tool, the Django commands will detect its presence and will make
|
||
use of its services to color output just like on Unix\-based platforms.
|
||
.sp
|
||
The colors used for syntax highlighting can be customized. Django
|
||
ships with three color palettes:
|
||
.INDENT 0.0
|
||
.IP \(bu 2
|
||
\fBdark\fP, suited to terminals that show white text on a black
|
||
background. This is the default palette.
|
||
.IP \(bu 2
|
||
\fBlight\fP, suited to terminals that show black text on a white
|
||
background.
|
||
.IP \(bu 2
|
||
\fBnocolor\fP, which disables syntax highlighting.
|
||
.UNINDENT
|
||
.sp
|
||
You select a palette by setting a \fBDJANGO_COLORS\fP environment
|
||
variable to specify the palette you want to use. For example, to
|
||
specify the \fBlight\fP palette under a Unix or OS/X BASH shell, you
|
||
would run the following at a command prompt:
|
||
.INDENT 0.0
|
||
.INDENT 3.5
|
||
.sp
|
||
.nf
|
||
.ft C
|
||
export DJANGO_COLORS="light"
|
||
.ft P
|
||
.fi
|
||
.UNINDENT
|
||
.UNINDENT
|
||
.sp
|
||
You can also customize the colors that are used. Django specifies a
|
||
number of roles in which color is used:
|
||
.INDENT 0.0
|
||
.IP \(bu 2
|
||
\fBerror\fP \- A major error.
|
||
.IP \(bu 2
|
||
\fBnotice\fP \- A minor error.
|
||
.IP \(bu 2
|
||
\fBsql_field\fP \- The name of a model field in SQL.
|
||
.IP \(bu 2
|
||
\fBsql_coltype\fP \- The type of a model field in SQL.
|
||
.IP \(bu 2
|
||
\fBsql_keyword\fP \- An SQL keyword.
|
||
.IP \(bu 2
|
||
\fBsql_table\fP \- The name of a model in SQL.
|
||
.IP \(bu 2
|
||
\fBhttp_info\fP \- A 1XX HTTP Informational server response.
|
||
.IP \(bu 2
|
||
\fBhttp_success\fP \- A 2XX HTTP Success server response.
|
||
.IP \(bu 2
|
||
\fBhttp_not_modified\fP \- A 304 HTTP Not Modified server response.
|
||
.IP \(bu 2
|
||
\fBhttp_redirect\fP \- A 3XX HTTP Redirect server response other than 304.
|
||
.IP \(bu 2
|
||
\fBhttp_not_found\fP \- A 404 HTTP Not Found server response.
|
||
.IP \(bu 2
|
||
\fBhttp_bad_request\fP \- A 4XX HTTP Bad Request server response other than 404.
|
||
.IP \(bu 2
|
||
\fBhttp_server_error\fP \- A 5XX HTTP Server Error response.
|
||
.UNINDENT
|
||
.sp
|
||
Each of these roles can be assigned a specific foreground and
|
||
background color, from the following list:
|
||
.INDENT 0.0
|
||
.IP \(bu 2
|
||
\fBblack\fP
|
||
.IP \(bu 2
|
||
\fBred\fP
|

.IP \(bu 2

\fBcyan\fP
|
||
.IP \(bu 2
|
||
\fBwhite\fP
|
||
.UNINDENT
|
||
.sp
|
||
Each of these colors can then be modified by using the following
|
||
display options:
|
||
.INDENT 0.0
|
||
.IP \(bu 2
|
||
\fBbold\fP
|
||
.IP \(bu 2
|
||
\fBunderscore\fP
|

A color specification follows one of the following patterns:
|
||
.INDENT 0.0
|
||
.IP \(bu 2
|
||
\fBrole=fg\fP
|
||
.IP \(bu 2
|
||
\fBrole=fg/bg\fP
|
||
.IP \(bu 2
|
||
\fBrole=fg,option,option\fP
|
||
.IP \(bu 2
|
||
\fBrole=fg/bg,option,option\fP
|
||
.UNINDENT
|
||
.sp
|
||
where \fBrole\fP is the name of a valid color role, \fBfg\fP is the
|
||
foreground color, \fBbg\fP is the background color and each \fBoption\fP
|
||
is one of the color modifying options. Multiple color specifications
|
||
are then separated by a semicolon. For example:
|
||
.INDENT 0.0
|
||
.INDENT 3.5
|
||
.sp
|
||
.nf
|
||
.ft C
|
||
export DJANGO_COLORS="error=yellow/blue,blink;notice=magenta"
|
||
.ft P
|
||
.fi
|
||
.UNINDENT
|
||
.UNINDENT
|
||
.sp
|
||
would specify that errors be displayed using blinking yellow on blue,
|
||
and notices displayed using magenta. All other color roles would be
|
||
left uncolored.
|
||
.sp
|
||
Colors can also be specified by extending a base palette. If you put
|
||
a palette name in a color specification, all the colors implied by that
|
||
palette will be loaded. So:
|
||
.INDENT 0.0
|
||
.INDENT 3.5
|
||
.sp
|
||
.nf
|
||
.ft C
|
||
export DJANGO_COLORS="light;error=yellow/blue,blink;notice=magenta"
|
||
.ft P
|
||
.fi
|
||
.UNINDENT
|
||
.UNINDENT
|
||
.sp
|
||
would specify the use of all the colors in the light color palette,
|
||
\fIexcept\fP for the colors for errors and notices which would be
|
||
overridden as specified.
|
||
.SS Bash completion
|
||
.sp
|
||
If you use the Bash shell, consider installing the Django bash completion
|
||
script, which lives in \fBextras/django_bash_completion\fP in the Django
|
||
distribution. It enables tab\-completion of \fBdjango\-admin\fP and
|
||
\fBmanage.py\fP commands, so you can, for instance...
|
||
.INDENT 0.0
|
||
.IP \(bu 2
|
||
Type \fBdjango\-admin\fP\&.
|
||
.IP \(bu 2
|
||
Press [TAB] to see all available options.
|
||
.IP \(bu 2
|
||
Type \fBsql\fP, then [TAB], to see all available options whose names start
|
||
with \fBsql\fP\&.

a list of arguments accepted by the command.
|

with \fBTrue\fP or \fBFalse\fP, as you can see with the \fBinteractive\fP option above.
|
||
.sp
|
||
Named arguments can be passed by using either one of the following syntaxes:
|
||
.INDENT 0.0
|
||
.INDENT 3.5
|
||
.sp
|
||
.nf
|
||
.ft C
|

# Similar to the command line
|

management.call_command(\(aqdumpdata\(aq, \(aq\-\-natural\-foreign\(aq)
|

# Named argument similar to the command line minus the initial dashes and
|
||
# with internal dashes replaced by underscores
|
||
management.call_command(\(aqdumpdata\(aq, natural_foreign=True)
|
||
|
||
# \(gause_natural_foreign_keys\(ga is the option destination variable
|
||
management.call_command(\(aqdumpdata\(aq, use_natural_foreign_keys=True)
|
||
.ft P
|
||
.fi
|
||
.UNINDENT
|
||
.UNINDENT
|

.sp
|
||
The first syntax is now supported thanks to management commands using the
|
||
\fI\%argparse\fP module. For the second syntax, Django previously passed
|
||
the option name as\-is to the command, now it is always using the \fBdest\fP
|
||
variable name (which may or may not be the same as the option name).
|
