Description:

djangocmshelper 1.2.5

Helper for django applications development
djangocms-helper is a set of commands and helper methods
to make developing and testing reusable Django applications easier.
Being born in the django CMS ecosystem, it provides a lot of utility
functions to develop, run and test django CMS applications.
It’s a modified version of django CMS’s own develop.py script, modified
to handle generic application development process.

Supported versions
Python: 2.7, 3.5, 3.6, 3.7
Django: 1.11 - 2,2
django CMS: 3.4 - 3.7
Newer versions might work but are not tested yet.

Warning
Starting from version 1.2, compatibility with Python 3.4, Django<=1.11 and
django CMS<=3.4 has been dropped. Pin your test requirements accordingly
(djangocms-helper<1.2).


Warning
Starting from version 1.1, nose test runner has been dropped.
Pin your test requirements accordingly (djangocms-helper<1.0).



Common options

--cms: Loads configuration to properly run a django CMS-based application;
--extra-settings: Path to a helper file to set extra settings; see
Settings section
for details;




Usage
The command must be executed in the main plugin directory (i.e. in the same
directory as the setup.py file) as it needs to import files relative to the
current directory.
The basic command structure is:
djangocms-helper <application> <command> [options ...]
where <application> is the django application name and <command> is one
of the available commands. Options vary for each command.

Base test class
A base test class is available to provide helpers and methods that
implements repetitive tasks during development or compatibility shims
(especially for django CMS).

Warning
Changes in version 1.2 might reduce the number of queries executed in tests
rendering plugins.
If you are using assertNumQueries (or similar), this may
yield unexpected failures.
Please check your code before upgrading djangocms-helper.
