Hi there, when I deploy my django projects I always run several commands after pulling latest code from repository. I've started using setup.py few weeks ago which adds manage.py script into $VENV/bin.
Basicaly, I always do: source $VENV/bin/activate export DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE=... git pull python setup.py install manage.py syncdb --noinput manage.py migrate manage.py collectstatic --noinput manage.py compilemessages I wrote deployment scripts in fabric, salt, ansible, but now I'm thinking that all these 'manage.py' actions should be part of setup script. Anytime when would I run ``python setup.py install`` the setup script would run all defined management commands so my environment, database and other stuff stays up to date. I've found that install command can be extended: http://www.niteoweb.com/blog/setuptools-run-custom-code-during-install I haven't found any references that anyone have used this method to deploy django project, so I'm looking for anyone who tried this approach before. Thanks in advance Cheers, Tom
