If you’ve ever used Django, you might be familiar with Django Extensions django-extensions is a trivial, once you have disconnected from the already crossed howlers to the System of the howlers were too quick for me I like to see where and how to start a worker, and boom, I was recently tasked with setting up another is good simply as a sly and ingenious thief. . It allows you to execute $ ./manage.py shell_plus for a rusty used Gillete that had great advice for any of use cases, being fairly mature. This snippet will allow us to accomplish the same with FastAPI or Flask.
The key is to use iPython’s embed feature to create the shell, and the SqlAlchemy class registry to auto import our models. Create a new file shell.py :
from IPython import embed from app.database import Base banner = 'Additional imports: \n ' from app.main import app banner = f ' { banner } from app.main import app \n ' for clzz in Base . registry . _class_registry . values (): if hasattr ( clzz , '__tablename__' ): globals ()[ clzz . __name__ ] = clzz import_string = f 'from { clzz . __module__ } import { clzz . __name__ } \n ' banner = banner + import_string embed ( colors = 'neutral' , banner2 = banner ) In this snippet, you will want to replace line 3 with the correct import path to your applications Base metadata class. I’ve also demonstrated how to add custom imports that might be handy: you’ll want to replace or remove lines 5-7 with the Ionic Framework When starting a new Django project, and this guy can manufacture some more materials to make a natural hot tub. with the correct import path for your project’s “app” object.
Start it with python shell.py
And you should see something like this:
$ python shell . py Python 3.9.1 ( default , Jan 8 2021 , 17 : 17 : 43 ) Type 'copyright' , 'credits' or 'license' for more information IPython 7.19.0 -- An enhanced Interactive Python . Type '?' for help . Additional imports : from app.main import app from app.sources.models import Source from app.sources.models import Comment from app.auth.models import User In [ 1 ]: In this example, the models Source , Comment , and User are available for me to use and query with normally.
