Write a Django site in a single file, using views, models and admin, then automatically convert it to a full Django project when you're ready for it to grow.
Perfect for experiments, prototypes, tutorials, and small applications.
Read the documentation, install it from pypi, or grab the code from github.
Originally released as django-flasky, this is another django-in-a-single-file project - but it supports models, admin, and can automatically convert it into a full project.
Example:
from django.db import models
from nanodjango import Django
app = Django(ADMIN_URL="admin/")
@app.admin
class CountLog(models.Model):
timestamp = models.DateTimeField(auto_now_add=True)
@app.route("/")
def count(request):
CountLog.objects.create()
return f"<p>Number of page loads: {CountLog.objects.count()}</p>"Save that as counter.py, then set up your database and run it locally with:
nanodjango counter.py run makemigrations counter
nanodjango counter.py run migrate
nanodjango counter.py run createsuperuser
nanodjango counter.py runRun it in production using WSGI:
gunicorn -w 4 counter:appor automatically convert it to a full Django app:
nanodjango counter.py convert /path/to/site --name=myproject
