Creating Django Apps on OS X Lion 10.7.2

As this is my first time using Django, I have to take care of some initial setup. Namely, I’ll need to auto-generate some code that establishes a Django project – a collection of settings for an instance of Django, including database configuration, Django-specific options and application-specific settings.

From the command line, cd into a directory where you’d like to store your code, I use my python directory,then run the following command:
django-admin.py startproject mysite
This will create a mysite directory in my python. Here tho result.
Nugrohos-MacBook-Pro:python nugroho$ pwd
/Users/nugroho/python
Nugrohos-MacBook-Pro:python nugroho$ ls
appender.py distribute-0.6.24.tar.gz graphy graphy.pyc
apprunner.py f.py graphy.py
Nugrohos-MacBook-Pro:python nugroho$ django-admin.py startproject mysite
Nugrohos-MacBook-Pro:python nugroho$ ls
appender.py distribute-0.6.24.tar.gz graphy graphy.pyc
apprunner.py f.py graphy.py mysite
Nugrohos-MacBook-Pro:python nugroho$ cd mysite/
Nugrohos-MacBook-Pro:mysite nugroho$ ls
__init__.py manage.py settings.py urls.py
Nugrohos-MacBook-Pro:mysite nugroho$
These files in mysite directory are:
__init__.py: An empty file that tells Python that this directory should be considered a Python package. (Read more about packages in the official Python docs if you're a Python beginner.)
manage.py: A command-line utility that lets you interact with this Django project in various ways. You can read all the details about manage.py in django-admin.py and manage.py.
settings.py: Settings/configuration for this Django project. Django settings will tell you all about how settings work.
urls.py: The URL declarations for this Django project; a "table of contents" of your Django-powered site. You can read more about URLs in URL dispatcher.
To verify that it works do this
Nugrohos-MacBook-Pro:mysite nugroho$ python manage.py runserver
Validating models...

Yup, it works…
Try to access http://127.0.0.1:8000 with your browser, :)
