Error when using django.template

Question

I\'m a beginner in django and I got a lot of errors when using template module from django. The following works from the python shell:

from django import templat         


        

Answer 1

You can't access and run django projects from python shell. Django doesn't know what project you want to work on.

You have to do one of these things:

1. python manage.py shell
2. Set DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE environment variable in your OS to mysite.settings
3. Use setup_environ in the python interpreter:
   from django.core.management import setup_environ
   from mysite import settings
   setup_environ(settings)

The first one is easiest and best method. Run your code in the django shell.
