I have several custom command classes that subclass BaseCommand
. I use those in a specific order to populate the DB.
I want to write another command to combine those in a single one. I don't want to write a shell script that will execute the commands in the right order. I want it to be a django-admin command.
I know I can just throw the code of all commands in a single one but I am looking for a more generic way to do it. So that I will have all the population scripts per db table clean and separated.
You could write another command, and use call_command
for each command you want to run.
from django.core import management
Then in your management command:
management.call_command('my_first_command')
management.call_command('my_second_command')
...
If your management commands take args or kwargs you'll need to do a bit more work.
