Installing django-autocomplete-light examples

Question

I am trying to install the django autocomplete light examples : django autocomplete docs

with the following step (from the docs above):

virtualenv autocomplete_light_env
source autocomplete_light_env/bin/activate
git clone https://[email protected]/yourlabs/django-autocomplete-light.git
cd django-autocomplete-light/test_project
pip install -r requirements.txt
./manage.py runserver (also tried "python manage.py runserver")

But even on a clean environment, I am getting the following error when I try the to run the server (last step):

File "manage.py", line 8, in <module>
    from django.core.management import execute_from_command_line
ImportError: No module named django.core.management

I have tried a bunch of the suggestions from stackoverflow on how to fix this but nothing seems to work.

Answer 1

I ended up installing django as suggested (I need to use django 1.5 for GAE compatibility):

pip install -e git+https://github.com/django/[email protected]#egg=django

So I got further, but now it is saying:

ImportError: No module named autocomplete_light.example_apps.non_admin_add_another

I see that the module is referenced in settings.py:

INSTALLED_APPS = (
'django.contrib.auth',
'django.contrib.contenttypes',
'django.contrib.sessions',
'django.contrib.sites',
'django.contrib.messages',
'django.contrib.staticfiles',
'django.contrib.admin',

'cities_light',

'autocomplete_light',
'autocomplete_light.example_apps.basic',
'autocomplete_light.example_apps.music',
'autocomplete_light.example_apps.autocomplete_test_case_app',
'autocomplete_light.example_apps.security_test',
'autocomplete_light.example_apps.dependant_autocomplete',
'autocomplete_light.example_apps.non_admin_add_another',

'navigation_autocomplete',
)

But I don't know how to resolve this problem.

UPDATE: Doing the "python setup.py install" as suggested did the trick!
