Hi, I am creating an app and want to store the database and the images within the project. The main motive behind this is I want to create a database with django's admin interface and want to use it on other computers later. In order to do this I will need to use relative paths. I tried using os.path.dirname but doesnt seem to work for me. below is the initial part of my settings file. I am using sqlite3. Can someone please guide me in the right path.
Thank you import os.path import sys import re PROJECT_ROOT = os.path.dirname(os.path.realpath(__file__)) DEBUG = True TEMPLATE_DEBUG = DEBUG ADMINS = ( # ('Your Name', 'your_em...@domain.com'), ) MANAGERS = ADMINS DATABASES = { 'default': { 'ENGINE': 'django.db.backends.sqlite3', # Add 'postgresql_psycopg2', 'postgresql', 'mysql', 'sqlite3' or 'oracle'. 'NAME': os.path.dirname(os.path.realpath(__file__)), # Or path to database file if using sqlite3. 'USER': '', # Not used with sqlite3. 'PASSWORD': '', # Not used with sqlite3. 'HOST': '', # Set to empty string for localhost. Not used with sqlite3. 'PORT': '', # Set to empty string for default. Not used with sqlite3. } } TIME_ZONE = 'America/Chicago' LANGUAGE_CODE = 'en-us' SITE_ID = 1 USE_I18N = True USE_L10N = True MEDIA_ROOT = os.path.join(PROJECT_ROOT, 'static') MEDIA_URL = '/static/' ADMIN_MEDIA_PREFIX = '/media/' -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
