How to keep all my django applications in specific folder

Question

I have a Django project, let\'s say \"project1\". Typical folder structure for applications is:

/project1/
         /app1/
         /app2/
         ...
             


        

Answer 1

You can add your apps folder to your python path by inserting the following in your settings.py:

import os
import sys

PROJECT_ROOT = os.path.dirname(__file__)
sys.path.insert(0, os.path.join(PROJECT_ROOT, 'apps'))

Then you can use all the apps in this folder just in the same way as they were in your project root!
