windows - A Python script that activates the virtualenv and then runs another Python script?

Question

On Windows Vista, I need a script that starts the activate (to activate the virtualenv) script in:

C:UsersAdminDesktopvenvScripts

And later, in the virtual environment, starts to the manage.py runserver in the folder:

C:UsersAdminDesktophelloworld

How should I do? What modules should I use?

Answer 1

You can activate your virtualenv and then start server using a bat file. Copy this script in to a file and save it with .bat extension (eg. runserver.bat)

@echo off
cmd /k "cd /d C:UsersAdminDesktopvenvScripts & activate & cd /d    C:UsersAdminDesktophelloworld & python manage.py runserver"

Then you can just run this bat file (just double click) to start the server
