I am doing a django project where I want my manage.py to run the server automatically(python manage.py runserver command) if its called. I believe that manage.py uses "execute_from_command_line". So is it possible or I have to find some other way to solve my problem.
I want my manage.py to run the server automatically

I'm trying to build a Django app, but it doesn't let me startup the app so I can bring it to the development server. I run python manage.py startup APP_NAME, where I expect the app to run. Instead, I get an error saying there is no such file or directory called manage.py. However, I have it open.
Is there a reason for this?
Perhaps what you need to ensure on your terminal what is the directory your project is located, by using command prompt "ls" if you are using Linux, or dir on Windows, then you need to activate your virtual environment using source virtual_env_name/bin/activate... then you can execute python manage.py
You need to run:
python manage.py startapp APP_NAME
to create new app in django
In django after populating the database, I started superuser creation but it fails and shows the error. Since I'm new to django and I cannot understand what is the error is about?
python manage.py createsuperuser
Error:
Superuser creation skipped due to not running in a TTY.
You can run `manage.py createsuperuser` in your project to create one manually.
Try to run the command inside a terminal with the path to manage.py as your working directory.
I am trying to create my first Django project and i've been following a tutorial for the setup here (so far this tutorial has been very helpful)
The only thing i'm doing different is i'm running everything in bash rather than the DOS command prompt (something else i'm new to)
My problem is that nothing happens in bash when i execute $ python manage.py runserver
however, if i go to http://127.0.0.1:8000/ the server is running and i get the django welcome page.
But bash just stays frozen with a blank line after the command i executed. Then if i do a keyboard interrupt, i can enter new commands in bash, but then if i go back to http://127.0.0.1:8000 the server isn't running and i get 'webpage not available'.
I'm need to know why i can't execute new commands in bash after i have executed $ python manage.py runserver
when you run python manage.py runserver something is happening - there is a web service listening on http://127.0.0.1:8000/
The reason bash appears to be frozen is that the runserver is "holding" it.
I just started learning django by using tango with django.
I did everything up till creating django project.
The problem I have is running with "manage.py" file.
When I ever I type
$ python manage.py runserver
it says
python: can't open file'manage.py'
So I tried
$ python c:\Users\<username>\tango_with_django_project\manage.py runserver
then it worked. Is there any way that I can run manage.py without typing long line like second one?
thanks
If you don't want to type each time, when you to run django dev server, just create .bat file (if you use Windows, as I can see) with this (working) string.
After that you need only double-click on this file to run server.
Did you changed current dir to the django project?
c:
cd \Users\<username>\tango_with_django_project\
python manage.py runserver
I'm developing some Python project with Django. When we render the Python/Django application, we need to open the command prompt and type in python manage.py runserver. That's ok on for the development server. But for production, it looks funny. Is there anyway to run the Python/Django project without opening the command prompt?
The deployment section of the documentation details steps to configure servers to run django in production.
runserver is to be used strictly for development and should never be used in production.
You run the runserver command only when you develop. After you deploy, the client does not need to run python manage.py runserver command. Calling the url will execute the required view. So it need not be a concern
If you are using Linux I wrote a pretty, pretty basic script, which I am always using when I don't want to call this command.
Note: You really just should use the "runserver" for developing :)
#!/bin/bash
#Of course change "IP-Address" to your current IP-Address and the "Port" to your port.
#ifconfig to get your IP-Address
python manage.py runserver IP-Address:Port
just name it runserver.sh and execute it like this in your terminal:
./runserver.sh
