I'm studying the Django Project tutorial
<https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.8/intro/tutorial01/> using Python 2.7
(because that's my department's current standard) and Django 1.8.2 (because
that's the current stable version).
The tutorial says, "If you are still using Python 2.7, you will need to
adjust the code samples slightly, as described in comments." What comments
does it mean?
The section "Playing with the API" instructs me to run the command:
$ python manage.py shell
or
>>> import django
>>> django.setup()
Being a methodical sort, I tried both. The first works. The second gives me
a bunch of errors, beginning with:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
File "c:\Python27\lib\site-packages\django\__init__.py", line 17, in setup
configure_logging(settings.LOGGING_CONFIG, settings.LOGGING)
I think it's complaining about an incompatibility between Python 2.7 and
Python 3.2.
I can evade the immediate problem by using "python manage.py shell"
instead, but I expect further problems in short order, and I need to know
how to fix them.
So, where are these "comments" that tell me what to do? I don't see any in
that part of the tutorial. I opened __init__.py, and there are no helpful
comments there, either.
I could figure this out myself, but I can't see debugging my way through
the entire Django codebase. I'm being paid to write an application, not fix
up Django.
Either I'm missing the comments that the tutorial promised me, or it has
left me in the lurch. Can someone explain, please?
