How to execute a Python script from the Django shell?
django, django-shell, python
Solution
The `<<` part is wrong, use `<` instead:
$ ./manage.py shell < myscript.py
You could also do:
$ ./manage.py shell
...
>>> execfile('myscript.py')
For python3 you would need to use
>>> exec(open('myscript.py').read())
Problem
I need to execute a Python script from the Django shell. I tried: ``` ./manage.py shell << my_script.py ``` But it didn't work. It was just waiting for me to write something.
