Two command-line questions. How do I get a list of model names? How do I match a user-inputted string with a model name?

[Tom Tanner]

I've got the following in `management/commands/my_command.py`:

    from django.core.management.base import BaseCommand, CommandError
    from django.conf import settings
   
    import os.path, csv
   
    from theme.models import *
 
    class Command(BaseCommand):
      def handle(self, *args, **options):
       modelName= raw_input("Enter model name: ")
       print "you entered", modelName

I want to show the user a list of all model names. I want to take the user's input and see if's an existing model. How do I do this?

import django.apps
django.apps.apps.get_models()

Hi,

You got answered otherwise but note that model name itself isn't unique. "appname.modelname" is unique pair.
