Custom run command for django - I'm not sure what pycharm needs in the configuration
Good evening,
I have a custom manage.py command that works from the command line in the format:
- python manage.py doSomething "dir/data.csv"
That works correctly, so django is properly configured and everyting works. But when I want to debug doSomething from pyCharm, I edit the configuration and see the field "custom run command"
But if i put into this field "doSomething dir/data.csv" the interpretor errors out:
Unknown command: 'doSomething "dir/data.csv"'
Type 'manage.py help' for usage.
But if I don't enter the arg, e.g the dir/filename, then I hit breakpoints in doSomething that I've set.
I'm 95% sure the problem is with me and I'm misuing the "custom run command" field. Can someone give me an example of specifically how to use it correctly?
Thanks

Hi,
I've also written a couple of custom commands for django, and they seem to work. All I do is follow this: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/howto/custom-management-commands/ then, when I'm ready to run them, I press Alt-R (on the mac), then a menu of manage.py commands appear. If I did everything correctly, my custom command appears in the list. I then press shift-enter to enter any command line arguments which my custom command needs. I didn't have to put anything in the configuration like what you are suggesting...
