djcli 1.0.2.dev1

Getting help

Run the djcli command without argument as such, note that you would have colored output:

$ djcli
djcli: time for CLI party !

It would like DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE env var, and does not require to be in
INSTALLED_APPS because automation software should be made automatically
available and adding to INSTALLED_APPS is a manual step.

Otherwise, it will try to find out DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE itself, searching for
a manage.py in the current working directory or sub directory.

[Callables in /home/jpic/src/djcli/djcli.py]

- chpasswd
- save
- delete
- detail
- ls
- settings

Try djcli help callable_name

Create/Update with the save command

You can get help with djcli help save:

$ djcli  help save
Idempotent save function.

First argument must be model name, for apps.get_model.
With only keyword arguments, it will pass them to create().
If you pass arguments, it will use update_or_create, passing
any keyword argument name as defaults to update_or_create
instead of kwarg.

# Create a user, not idempotent
djcli save auth.user username=foo email=joe@example.com

# Create or update a user based on email, idempotent yay !
djcli save auth.user email username=foo email=joe@example.com

# oh, and with settings.* support for your model swapping fun hacks ;)
djcli save settings.AUTH_USER_MODEL ...
