摘要: 基于Django version 1.11.0 . alpha版本
鉴于笔者水平有限，文中不免出现一些错误，还请多多指教！
好了，下边是正文....
首先大概看一下Django 项目的主要目录，初步建立一下Django源码的世界观。
├── django //工程代码存放路径
├── docs //文档
├── extras
├── js_tests //测试
├── scripts //脚本
└── tests //单元测试
Django核心代码主要在django目录下边
django/
├── apps（app模块）
├── bin（可执行命令）
├── conf（配置）
├── contrib（其他开发者贡献代码）
├── core（核心组件）
├── db（ORM模块）
├── dispatch
├── forms（表单模块）

在django中我们常用的命令主要有两个，一个是django-admin，一个是xxxx,我们先看一下django-admin
1、命令位置
lion@localhost:~/django/django$ whereis django-admin
django-admin: /usr/local/bin/django-admin /usr/local/bin/django-admin.py /usr/local/bin/django-admin.pyc
2、命令内容
lion@localhost:~/django/django$ cat /usr/local/bin/django-admin
#!/usr/bin/python
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
import re
import sys
from django.core.management import execute_from_command_line
if __name__ == '__main__':
sys.argv[0] = re.sub(r'(-script\.pyw?|\.exe)?$', '', sys.argv[0])
sys.exit(execute_from_command_line())
其实对比不难发现，django-admin命令其实对应的是django源码中的.django/bin/django-admin.py这个文件。
django-admin.py 引用了django.core中的management，并调用了其execute_from_command_line函数。
注：在最新版中django-admin和manage.py中调用的都是execute_from_command_line函数了，较旧版本的django中可能不同。
所以要分析django的命令系统，就要从execute_from_command_line函数入手。
execute_from_command_line函数定义：
def execute_from_command_line(argv=None):
"""
A simple method that runs a ManagementUtility.
"""
utility = ManagementUtility(argv)
utility.execute()
函数初始化ManagementUtility类，传入argv（也就是命令行参数）参数，并执行execute方法
execute方法：
def execute(self):
"""
Given the command-line arguments, this figures out which subcommand is
being run, creates a parser appropriate to that command, and runs it.
"""
try:
subcommand = self.argv[1]
except IndexError:
subcommand = 'help' # Display help if no arguments were given.
# Preprocess options to extract --settings and --pythonpath.
# These options could affect the commands that are available, so they
# must be processed early.
parser = CommandParser(None, usage="%(prog)s subcommand [options] [args]", add_help=False)
parser.add_argument('--settings')
parser.add_argument('--pythonpath')
parser.add_argument('args', nargs='*') # catch-all
try:
options, args = parser.parse_known_args(self.argv[2:])
handle_default_options(options)
except CommandError:
pass # Ignore any option errors at this point.
no_settings_commands = [
'help', 'version', '--help', '--version', '-h',
'startapp', 'startproject', 'compilemessages',
]
try:
settings.INSTALLED_APPS
except ImproperlyConfigured as exc:
self.settings_exception = exc
# A handful of built-in management commands work without settings.
# Load the default settings -- where INSTALLED_APPS is empty.
if subcommand in no_settings_commands:
settings.configure()
if settings.configured:
# Start the auto-reloading dev server even if the code is broken.
# The hardcoded condition is a code smell but we can't rely on a
# flag on the command class because we haven't located it yet.
if subcommand == 'runserver' and '--noreload' not in self.argv:
try:
autoreload.check_errors(django.setup)()
except Exception:
# The exception will be raised later in the child process
# started by the autoreloader. Pretend it didn't happen by
# loading an empty list of applications.
apps.all_models = defaultdict(OrderedDict)
apps.app_configs = OrderedDict()
apps.apps_ready = apps.models_ready = apps.ready = True
# In all other cases, django.setup() is required to succeed.
else:
django.setup()
self.autocomplete()
if subcommand == 'help':
if '--commands' in args:
sys.stdout.write(self.main_help_text(commands_only=True) + '\n')
elif len(options.args) < 1:
sys.stdout.write(self.main_help_text() + '\n')
else:
self.fetch_command(options.args[0]).print_help(self.prog_name, options.args[0])
# Special-cases: We want 'django-admin --version' and
# 'django-admin --help' to work, for backwards compatibility.
elif subcommand == 'version' or self.argv[1:] == ['--version']:
sys.stdout.write(django.get_version() + '\n')
elif self.argv[1:] in (['--help'], ['-h']):
sys.stdout.write(self.main_help_text() + '\n')
else:
self.fetch_command(subcommand).run_from_argv(self.argv)
此方法主要解析命令行参数，加载settings配置，如果setting配置成功则执行django.setup函数（此函数主要是加载App），最后一步调用的核心命令为fetch_command命令，并执行run_from_argv函数
先看一下fetch_command函数
def fetch_command(self, subcommand):
"""
Tries to fetch the given subcommand, printing a message with the
appropriate command called from the command line (usually
"django-admin" or "manage.py") if it can't be found.
"""
# Get commands outside of try block to prevent swallowing exceptions
commands = get_commands()
try:
app_name = commands[subcommand]
except KeyError:
if os.environ.get('DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE'):
# If `subcommand` is missing due to misconfigured settings, the
# following line will retrigger an ImproperlyConfigured exception
# (get_commands() swallows the original one) so the user is
# informed about it.
settings.INSTALLED_APPS
else:
sys.stderr.write("No Django settings specified.\n")
sys.stderr.write(
"Unknown command: %r\nType '%s help' for usage.\n"
% (subcommand, self.prog_name)
)
sys.exit(1)
if isinstance(app_name, BaseCommand):
# If the command is already loaded, use it directly.
klass = app_name
else:
klass = load_command_class(app_name, subcommand)
return klass
这个fetch_command函数类似一个工厂函数，由get_commands函数扫描出所有的子命令，包括managemen中的子命令和app下的managemen中commands的子命令（自定义），然后根据传入的subcommand初始化Command类。
如果子命令不在commands字典内的话，会抛出一个“Unknown command”的提示，如果子命令存在则返回初始化的Command类。
接着视角在返回到execute函数中，接着
self.fetch_command(subcommand).run_from_argv(self.argv)
将会调用fetch_command(subcommand)初始化Command类的run_from_argv方法。run_from_argv由各个Command的基类BaseCommand定义，最终将会调用各个子类实现的handle方法。从而执行子命令的业务逻辑。
至此，命令调用的逻辑基本完成。
笔者随笔：
通过阅读这一部分的代码，其中最值得学习的地方在于fetch_commands函数，这是一个运用工厂方法的最佳实践，这样不但最大程度的解耦了代码实现，同时使得命令系统更易于扩展（App 自定义子命令就是一个很好的说明）
再有一点就是Command基类的定义，对于各种子命令的定义，基类完整的抽象出了command业务的工作逻辑，提供了统一的命令调用接口使得命令系统更易于扩展。
