A command for manage.py which scans through installed applications the way admin.autodiscover does, just looking for media folders. It then creates a symbolic link to the media under MEDIA_ROOT/app_name. Usage: save in an apps management/commands folder and run with "python manage.py linkmedia" Only works on *nix systems, but there should be an equivilent way to do this with windows using .lnk files.
This creates a fixture in the form of a python script. Handles: 1. `ForeignKey` and `ManyToManyField`s (using python variables, not IDs) 2. Self-referencing `ForeignKey` (and M2M) fields 3. Sub-classed models 4. `ContentType` fields 5. Recursive references 6. `AutoField`s are excluded 7. Parent models are only included when no other child model links to it There are a few benefits to this: 1. edit script to create 1,000s of generated entries using `for` loops, python modules etc. 2. little drama with model evolution: foreign keys handled naturally without IDs, new and removed columns are ignored The [runscript command by poelzi](http://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/6243), complements this command very nicely! e.g. $ ./manage.py dumpscript appname > scripts/testdata.py $ ./manage.py reset appname $ ./manage.py runscript testdata
This is a little improvement to the [idea](http://www.djangosnippets.org/snippets/540/) from sheats a few days ago. I like it over the previous solutions because it doesn't involve doing anything other than running `./manage.py shell` inside your project directory. You don't have to create any files anywhere or remember to call anything, and `ipython` still works fine outside of a Django project. Throw this code in `~/.ipython/ipy_user_conf.py` (`ipythonrc` has apparently been deprecated).
A simple script to run 'manage.py sqlall' on every app in a project.
You can read the short blog article that gives a [description of what I was thinking](http://unpythonic.blogspot.com/2007/03/using-pexpect-to-control-django.html) when I attempted this. Note: UNIX only. Sorry!
It's cheap, hackish, and dirty, but it works. \\o/ Lines 19 & 20 are what you should edit.
