-------------------------------------+-------------------------------------
Current Django behavior is that only files are allowed for custom django-
admin commands definition. It would be great if Django permitted
directories (see example below).
Current (required) style:
{{{
app_example/management/commands
├── first_command.py
└── second_command.py
}}}
New style:
{{{
app_example/management/commands
├── first_command
│ ├── __init__.py
│ └── some_useful_data
└── second_command
└── __init__.py
}}}
Or combined style:
{{{
app_example/management/commands
├── first_command
│ ├── __init__.py
│ └── some_useful_data
└── second_command.py
}}}
This feature allows developers to use additional files (some_useful_data
is this case) in structured way, also providing encapsulation.
The only code to be changed is in file
`django/core/management/__init__.py` line 27:
From `if not is_pkg and not name.startswith('_')]`
To `if not name.startswith('_')]`
After this change, function `find_commands` won't ignore packages
(directories).
Also, backward compatibility will be saved (because single files work in
the same way).
