|

|
|
|
- If you'd rather not use :file:`manage.py`, no problem. Just set the
|
|
|
- :envvar:`DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE` environment variable to
|
|
|
- ``mysite.settings``, start a plain Python shell, and set up Django:
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- .. code-block:: pycon
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- >>> import django
|
|
|
- >>> django.setup()
|
|
|

|
|
|
- If this raises an :exc:`AttributeError`, you're probably using
|
|
|
- a version of Django that doesn't match this tutorial version. You'll want
|
|
|
- to either switch to the older tutorial or the newer Django version.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- You must run ``python`` from the same directory :file:`manage.py` is in,
|
|
|
- or ensure that directory is on the Python path, so that ``import mysite``
|
|
|
- works.
|
|
|

|
|

- For more information on all of this, see the :doc:`django-admin
|
