django-genesis

Allows apps to define management commands that are called from a central management command. Likely scenarios are post-deploy configurations (insert groups/permissions, compilemessages etc.)

Dependencies

• Django >= 1.4

Overview

• Management command to run other management commands
• Allows apps to "hook" onto and be run from a central management command

Installation

To install django-genesis simply run:

pip install git+ssh://[email protected]/TwigWorld/[email protected]#egg=django-genesis==1.0.0

Configuration

We need to hook django-genesis into our project.

1. Put genesis into your INSTALLED_APPS at settings module:

   INSTALLED_APPS = (
      ...
      'genesis',
   )
   

Usage

After installation we can finally use genesis.

Let's get started quickly. Running this line:

python manage.py let_there_be_light

On an example django project with the below installed apps:

app_1/
    management/
        commands/
            __init__.py
            app_1_bootstrap.py
            other_stuff.py
app_2/
    management/
        commands/
            __init__.py
            app_2_bootstrap.py
            a_new_stuff.py
app_3/
    management/
        commands/
            __init__.py
            another_new_stuff.py

Will cause the following management commands to be run:

app_1_bootstrap.py
app_2_bootstrap.py

All management commands to be run from let_there_be_light MUST be named {app_name}_bootstrap.py
