Django Interactive Models

This app provides a CLI through the manage.py script to create models from the command line.

Usage:

Install the package into the virtualenv:

pip install django-interactive-models

Then, add the app to the INSTALLED_APPS in settings:

INSTALLED_APPS = [
    ...
    "interactive_models",
    ...
]

Then, you can finally run the models command like:

./manage.py models <app_name> <model_name> <field_name>:<field_type> ...

Check the usage by using the -h flag.

For example, this command:

./manage.py models my_app MyModel number:int text:text page_url:url creation_date:datetime

Will create a models.py file inside my_app with the fields number, text, page_url, creation_date with their corresponding django database fields.
