Running and using django in the college environment can be difficult. So i have written this program to perform the key django functions:

Management Program

import os,sys

def djangocommand(option):
    DJANGO_PATH = ""
    for p in sys.path:
        if p.find('Scripts') != -1:
            DJANGO_PATH = p[0:p.find('Scripts')]+"Scripts\python "+p[0:p.find('Scripts')]+"Scripts\django-admin.py"
    os.system(DJANGO_PATH + " "+option)

def managecommand(option):
    MANAGE_PATH = ""
    for p in sys.path:
        if p.find('Scripts') != -1:
            MANAGE_PATH = p[0:p.find('Scripts')]+"Scripts\python "
    MANAGE_PATH +=os.path.dirname(os.path.realpath(__file__))+ "\manage.py"+" "+option
    print(MANAGE_PATH)
    os.system(MANAGE_PATH)

print('Do you want to use:')
print('1: Django-admin')
print('2: Manage')
manoption=input("Please Select 1 or 2:")
if manoption=='1':
    print('What django-admin command do you want to run:')
    print('1: StartProject')
    print('2: StartApp')
    option = input("Please Select 1 or 2:")
    if option=='1':
        name = input("Please enter a project name:")
        djangocommand("startproject "+name+" .")
    elif option=='2':
       name = input("Please enter a app name:")
       djangocommand("startapp "+name)
    else:
        print("invalid option, please re-run")
elif manoption=='2':
    print('What django-admin command do you want to run:')
    print('1: Runserver')
    print('2: MakeMigrations')
    print('3: Migrate')
    print('4: Create Super User')
    option = input("Please Select 1, 2, 3 or 4:")
    if option=='1':
        managecommand("runserver")
    elif option=='2':
       managecommand("makemigrations")
    elif option=='3':
       managecommand("migrate")
    elif option=='4':
       managecommand("createsuperuser")
    else:
        print("invalid option, please re-run")
else:
    print("invalid option, please re-run")

Create a new '.py' file and call it something like 'admin.py', and you can run this by right clicking your new file in solution explorer and then 'start without debugging'.
