Actually that's what am doing, am saving the files with timestamp, The
question is, do I create a daemon to check the dir and process new
files in order, and if that's the best practice, how do I use Django
environment in the daemon so I can import the models??
A daemon is probably the best way because that way you don't have to
figure out whether another instance of the process is running each time.
If you want a script to be able to import models all you have to do is
have your Django settings file known by your environment.
Either set this environment variable: DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE
example (must be on PYTHONPATH, of course):
export DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE=myproject.settings
Or (in the script itself):
os.environ['DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE'] = 'mysite.settings'
That stuff is explained in detail here:
