Re: Question regarding Interactive Python shell response and django

Again; the issue is why are you mixing up the console/shell with the web-facing aspect?  These are designed for different ways of interacting with Django.  Its almost like you are asking "how to hit in a screw with a a hammer?". What is the underlying problem you are trying to solve?

I'm not sure if DRF will work for me. I guess I should rephrase my question:

If I'm using an imported module from a Django view that requires responding to executing from the console, is there a where to surface that request through the web app to end-user can do the input?

Ill have to look at the DRF option, the python API I'm connecting assumes you are doing this from shell, so I was trying to work around that fact

I think you are better off creating a proper API for your Django project, using something like DRF.

The Django shell is meant for direct use by an administrator working on the server.

So I find myself in a pickle. 

I'm using an external python API with Django, and as part of that interaction, it asks for an input from the Django python shell window. What I am trying to figure out is how can I get form input from web application to push back to the shell window. Appreciate it if anyone has experience on how to do this or work around this. 

Attached is a screenshot of what I'm looking at. Im hoping there is a clean way of pass form data to this type of interaction
