Usage

django-admin and manage.py

To use django-admin and manage.py, run

docker-compose exec --user=cpuser app bash

This will take you inside the app container and you will be able to use both use django-admin and manage.py and the --user=cpuser ensures that the files are not created as root on the host.

The Django-Extensions have also been added.

python manage.py show_urls

So commands like show_urls are available.
