Run Django manage.py command from the web

Django Commander

Run Django manage.py commands from the web. This is mainly useful in situations where you can't easily SSH into your host. For example, if you use azf-wsgi to run Django on Azure Functions.

Configuration

1. Add commander to your INSTALLED_APPS.
2. Add COMMANDER_KEY to your settings. This should be a reasonably secure key, which you'll use in lieu of real authentication 😱
3. from commander import commander_urls and add path('commander/', commander_urls), to your URLconf.
4. Navigate to http://yourserver/yourapp/commander/?key={COMMANDER_KEY}.
5. Do whatever config you need to do.
6. Change COMMANDER_KEY explicitly to None to disable management 😌
