when do you want this to be called? on response by a web request? at
a certain hour every day? every 30 minutes?
do you already have an app to handle the data? i guess so, because you
already have the models; but do you also have the
views/templates/admin ?
the exact location of the file isn't too important; if it's tightly
tied to the web app, i just put in the app directory. if it's more
like an external module, put it somewhere in the PYTHON_PATH.
the important part is where to call this file's functionality. if by
a web request, do it in a view. if by a time clock, create an
administrator command
(https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.3/howto/custom-management-commands/)
and set a cronjob to execute it. if by a web request, but the result
won't be ready in a few milliseconds, use a queue manager to send the
command from a view to a daemon (the most recommended is celery, but
there are others).
