How do they run these python commands in python console within their django project. Here is example.
I'm using Windows 10, PyCharm and python 3.7. I know how to run the project. But when I run the project, - console opens, which gives regular input/output for the project running. When I open python console - I can run commands, so that they execute immidiately, but how do I run python console, so that I can type some commands and they would execute immediately, but that would happen within some project?
Example from here:
# Import the models we created from our "news" app
>>> from news.models import Article, Reporter
# No reporters are in the system yet.
>>> Reporter.objects.all()
<QuerySet []>
# Create a new Reporter.
>>> r = Reporter(full_name='John Smith')
# Save the object into the database. You have to call save() explicitly.
>>> r.save()
# Now it has an ID.
>>> r.id

When you run the project you're using a management command: python manage.py runserver. To enter a console that has access to all your Django apps, the ORM, etc., use another management command: python manage.py shell. That will allow you to import models as shown in your example.
As an additional tip, consider installing the Django extensions package, which includes a management command shell_plus. It's helpful, especially (but not only) in development, as it imports all your models, along with some other handy tools.
