Christian,
Maybe it's unfinished or maybe not, but it certainly is awkward and
confusing to use.
Here's something that worked for me: Run it from within the
generateds/django directory, but before you do, either copy
generateDS.py into that directory, or make a symbolic link to it
there.
The following worked for me:
$ hg clone https://dkuhl...@bitbucket.org/dkuhlman/generateds
$ cd generateds/django/
$ lns ../generateDS.py . # Or: $ cp ../generateDS.py .
$ cp ../tests/people.xsd .
$ ./gends_run_gen_django.py -f -v people.xsd
I'm going to consider removing the -p command line option. It was
intended to make use more convenient, but, as you found, seems to
only makes things more difficult.
Below, there are some more detailed instructions. Perhaps I'll put
them in a README in the generateds/django directory or will add them
to the instructions in the generateDS.py documentation, which you
can find here:
http://www.davekuhlman.org/generateDS.html#django-generating-models-and-forms
Instructions:
============================================
Although, there are likely other configurations that will work, one
reasonably simple way is the following:
1. Download the source distribution of generateDS with the
following::
$ hg clone https://dkuhl...@bitbucket.org/dkuhlman/generateds
Alternatively, you can download a Zip file from here:
https://bitbucket.org/dkuhlman/generateds/downloads/
Or, a tar file from here:
https://pypi.python.org/pypi/generateDS
And, then unroll it.
2. Change directory to the ``django`` directory::
$ cd generateds/django
3. In that directory, either, (a) create a symbolic link to
``generateDS.py``::
$ ln -s ../generateDS.py
Or, (b) copy ``generateDS.py`` to that directory::
$ cp ../generateDS.py .
4. In that directory, Run ``gends_run_gen_django.py``. For
example::
$ cp ../tests/people.xsd .
$ ./gends_run_gen_django.py -f -v people.xsd
If the above ran successfully, it should have created these files::
admin.py
forms.py
models.py
============================================
Hope this helps. And, thank you for reporting this. I do need a
little motivation to work on it and at least try to make it better..
Let me know if the above instructions worked and made it easier for
you, and if you have suggestions. If the above instructions seem
helpful, I can add them as a README file in the ``django``
directory.
