Hi all,
There's a pattern I like to use in my projects which I'd like to
suggest for django startproject.
It looks like:
project_name/
setup.py
src/
myapp1/
myapp2/
project_name/
settings.py
urls.py
manage.py
wsgi.py
My settings.py here uses environment variables for everything to
override defaults.
Setup.py here allows:
- Adding an entry point,
- Installing all apps as packages,
- Installing test dependencies with extra_requires and pip install
project_name[test],
- Adding runtime dependencies.
For example, with that:
entry_points = {
'console_scripts': [
'project_name = project_name.manage:main',
],
},
And such a manage.py:
def main():
os.environ.setdefault("DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE", "project_name.settings")
from django.core.management import execute_from_command_line
execute_from_command_line(sys.argv)
if __name__ == "__main__":
main()
Installing the package will add the project_name command, allowing to
run `project_name migrate` for example from any directory.
I know it's too opinionated to add that to django, but I'd like to
open a discussion here and perhaps there's something we might find
worth changing in django's default project template.
Thanks for reading !
