POGot "ImportError: No module named xxx" when trying to use ORM outside of Django
text
Body
copied!<p><strong>Dear Bros,</strong> I like Django ORM very much, so I'm trying to use it outside of Django Project itself. But I'm facing a problem when I trying to use it. <strong>Here is my file structure on my Mac:</strong></p> <pre><code>testORM |-- orm |-- __init__.py |-- models.py |-- manage.py |-- settings.py |-- test.py </code></pre> <p><strong>Here are my very simple codes:</strong></p> <p>models.py:</p> <pre><code>from django.db import models class test(models.Model): name = models.CharField(max_length=50) class Meta: db_table='test' app_label='orm' </code></pre> <p>manage.py:</p> <pre><code>import os import sys if __name__ == "__main__": os.environ.setdefault("DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE", "settings") from django.core.management import execute_from_command_line execute_from_command_line(sys.argv) </code></pre> <p>settings.py:</p> <pre><code>DATABASES = { 'default': { 'ENGINE': 'django.db.backends.postgresql_psycopg2', # Add 'postgresql_psycopg2', 'mysql', 'sqlite3' or 'oracle'. 'NAME': 'Portal', # Or path to database file if using sqlite3. 'USER': 'postgres', # Not used with sqlite3. 'PASSWORD': 'Cloud', # Not used with sqlite3. 'HOST': 'localhost', # Set to empty string for localhost. Not used with sqlite3. 'PORT': '5432', # Set to empty string for default. Not used with sqlite3. } } # Local time zone for this installation. Choices can be found here: # http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_tz_zones_by_name # although not all choices may be available on all operating systems. # In a Windows environment this must be set to your system time zone. TIME_ZONE = 'America/Chicago' INSTALLED_APPS = ( 'orm', ) </code></pre> <p>test.py:</p> <pre><code>import sys sys.path.append('/Users/wally/Documents/workspace/testORM') sys.path.append('/Users/wally/Documents/workspace/testORM/orm') import os os.environ.setdefault("DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE", "settings") from django.core.management import setup_environ import settings setup_environ(settings) </code></pre> <p>Here is what I got when I trying to execute test.py from eclipse:</p> <pre><code>Traceback (most recent call last): File "/Users/wally/Documents/workspace/testORM/test.py", line 14, in <module> setup_environ(settings) File "/Library/Python/2.7/site-packages/django/core/management/__init__.py", line 433, in setup_environ import_module(project_name) File "/Library/Python/2.7/site-packages/django/utils/importlib.py", line 35, in import_module __import__(name) ImportError: No module named testORM </code></pre> <p>But the when I try to execute </p> <pre><code>python manage.py shell from django.db import connection cursor = connection.cursor() </code></pre> <p>they all working fine from command line!!! Even when I create models's object and save data is working fine too, everything is working fine through shell.</p> <ul> <li>But I cannot figure out why it's not working when I trying to execute them from test.py. I just didn't start to do anything in test.py, just import the settings.</li> <li>I searched the web, someone solve the problem by adding the project's path to "sys.path", as you could see, I did it, adding the hard-coded full path. But still not work...</li> <li>Could someone ever encounter this situationn? I'm really appreciate if someone could help. Thanks in advace.</li> <li>Note: I'm using python2.7 and Django1.4 on my Mac(v10.8)</li> </ul>
