Run ``django-admin.py --help`` to display a help message that includes a terse
list of all available actions and options.
Getting runtime help
--------------------
Most actions take a list of ``appname``s. An ``appname`` is the basename of the
package containing your models. For example, if your ``INSTALLED_APPS``
contains the string ``'mysite.blog'``, the ``appname`` is ``blog``.
In Django 0.96, run ``django-admin.py --help`` to display a help message that
includes a terse list of all available subcommands and options.
Available actions
=================
In the Django development version, run ``django-admin.py help`` to display a
list of all available subcommands. Run ``django-admin.py help <subcommand>``
to display a description of the given subcommand and a list of its available
options.

Many subcommands take a list of "app names." An "app name" is the basename of
the package containing your models. For example, if your ``INSTALLED_APPS``

Determining the version

--verbosity
~~~~~~~~~~~
Use ``--verbosity`` to specify the amount of notification and debug information
that ``django-admin.py`` should print to the console.
* ``0`` means no input.
* ``1`` means normal input (default).
* ``2`` means verbose input.
Example usage::
django-admin.py syncdb --verbosity=2

Use the ``--noinput`` option to suppress all user prompting, such as
"Are you sure?" confirmation messages. This is useful if ``django-admin.py``
is being executed as an unattended, automated script.

and prints validation errors to standard output.
Available options
=================
Default options
===============
--settings
----------
Example usage::
django-admin.py syncdb --settings=mysite.settings
Explicitly specifies the settings module to use. The settings module should be
in Python package syntax, e.g. ``mysite.settings``. If this isn't provided,
``django-admin.py`` will use the ``DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE`` environment
variable.
Note that this option is unnecessary in ``manage.py``, because it takes care of
setting ``DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE`` for you.

--format

Example usage::
django-admin.py dumpdata --format=xml
Specifies the output format that will be used. The name provided must be the name
of a registered serializer.
--help
------
Displays a help message that includes a terse list of all available actions and
options.
--indent
--------
Example usage::
django-admin.py dumpdata --indent=4
Specifies the number of spaces that will be used for indentation when
pretty-printing output. By default, output will *not* be pretty-printed.
Pretty-printing will only be enabled if the indent option is provided.
--noinput
---------
Inform django-admin that the user should NOT be prompted for any input. Useful
if the django-admin script will be executed as an unattended, automated
script.
--noreload
--settings
----------
Disable the use of the auto-reloader when running the development server.
--version
---------
Displays the current Django version.
Example output::
0.9.1

--verbosity
-----------
Example usage::
django-admin.py syncdb --verbosity=2
django-admin.py syncdb --settings=mysite.settings
Verbosity determines the amount of notification and debug information that
will be printed to the console. '0' is no output, '1' is normal output,
and ``2`` is verbose output.
Explicitly specifies the settings module to use. The settings module should be
in Python package syntax, e.g. ``mysite.settings``. If this isn't provided,
``django-admin.py`` will use the ``DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE`` environment
variable.
--adminmedia
------------
Example usage::
django-admin.py --adminmedia=/tmp/new-admin-style/
Tells Django where to find the various CSS and JavaScript files for the admin
interface when running the development server. Normally these files are served
out of the Django source tree, but because some designers customize these files
for their site, this option allows you to test against custom versions.
Note that this option is unnecessary in ``manage.py``, because it takes care of
setting ``DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE`` for you.
