Installation

$ [sudo] pip install django-app-test

Benefits

learn Django with minimum code. 1 example = 1 app folder. no need project

How it works

tests.py required

optional app files:

fixtures/
templates/
templatetags/
forms.py
models.py
settings.py
views.py
urls.py

output temp folder:

manage.py 
app/__init__.py
app/apps.py
app/...             # app optional files
app/tests.py        # required

executed management commands:

python manage.py makemigrations app     # if models.py exists
python manage.py migrate app            # if models.py exists
python manage.py loaddata fixtures/*    # if fixtures/ exists
python manage.py test app

settings.py

DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE by default is django_app_test_settings

customize:

a) create settings.py

b) export DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE="custom_settings"

Scripts usage

Examples

models.py

from django.db import models
from taggit.managers import TaggableManager

class MyModel(models.Model):
...

settings.py

INSTALLED_APPS = [
    'app',
    'taggit',
    'django.contrib.auth',
    'django.contrib.contenttypes',
]

SECRET_KEY="<SECRET_KEY>"
DATABASES = {'default': {'ENGINE': 'django.db.backends.sqlite3','NAME': 'dbname'}}

tests.py

from .models import MyModel
...

What's Next?

create Makefile:

all:
    django-app-test .

create Makefile for every folder:

all:
    find "$(CURDIR)" -name "tests.py" -print0 | xargs -0 -L 1 -I{} sh -c 'set "$$(dirname "$$0")"/Makefile; echo "all:" > "$$1"; echo " @django-app-test ." >> "$$1";echo $$1' {}
