Note: this is much better documented at
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/howto/custom-management-commands/
You want to move this file to the management.commands module. I don't know
what the equivalent commands are on windows, but on linux this would be.
1) `cd myapp; mkdir management`: Within you app, in the same directory as
views.py create a directory called 'management'
2) `cd management`: Go into that directory
3) `touch__init__.py`: create an empty file named __init__.py
4) `mkdir commands`: create a directory named "commands"
5) `cd commands`: go into that directory
6) `touch __init__.py`: create another empty file named__init.py
7) `echo 'from django.conf import settings' > mycommandname.py`: create a
file named with the command you want within that directory.
8) You need to have something in that file that looks like:
from django.core.management.base import BaseCommand
class Command(BaseCommand):
args = 'spam eggs'
help = 'makes an omelette to throw at a silly English knigget'
def handle(self, *args, **swargs):
print settings.STATIC_ROOT
