Django Extensions is a collection of custom extensions for the Django Framework.

Getting Started
===============

The easiest way to figure out what Django Extensions are all about is to watch the `excellent screencast by Eric Holscher`__. In a couple minutes Eric walks you through a half a dozen command extensions.

Getting It
==========

You can get Django Extensions by using pip or easy_install::

 $ pip install django-extensions
 or
 $ easy_install django-extensions

If you want to install it from source, grab the git repository from GitHub and run setup.py::

 $ git clone git://github.com/django-extensions/django-extensions.git
 $ cd django-extensions
 $ python setup.py install

Installing It
=============

To enable `django_extensions` in your project you need to add it to `INSTALLED_APPS` in your projects `settings.py` file::

 INSTALLED_APPS = (
     ...
     'django_extensions',
     ...
 )


Using It
========

Generate (and view) a graphviz graph of app models::

 $ python manage.py graph_models -a -o myapp_models.png

Produce a tab-separated list of `(url_pattern, view_function, name)` tuples for a project::

 $ python manage.py show_urls

Getting Involved
================

Open Source projects can always use more help. Fixing a problem, documenting a feature, adding translation in your language. If you have some time to spare and like to help us, here are the places to do so:

- GitHub: https://github.com/django-extensions/django-extensions
- Mailing list: http://groups.google.com/group/django-extensions
- Translations: https://www.transifex.net/projects/p/django-extensions/

Documentation
=============

You can view documentation online at:

- http://packages.python.org/django-extensions/

Or you can look at the docs/ directory in the repository.
