@ -381,28 +381,6 @@ We're using this instead of simply typing "python", because :file:`manage.py`
|
|||
sets the ``DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE`` environment variable, which gives Django
|
||||
the Python import path to your :file:`mysite/settings.py` file.
|
||||
|
||||
.. admonition:: Bypassing manage.py
|
||||
|
||||
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
|
||||
documentation </ref/django-admin>`.
|
||||
|
||||
Once you're in the shell, explore the :doc:`database API </topics/db/queries>`::
|
||||
|
||||
>>> from polls.models import Question, Choice # Import the model classes we just wrote.
