With this awesome manage.py, it will try to migrate first when called with runserver.

Also, this manege.py has super power to be used in your entry point as such:

entry_points = {
    'console_scripts': [
        # u haz a setup.py -> u haz importable module :) 
        'yourcommand = yourproject.manage:main',
    ],
},

Example output:

$ yourcommand runserver

Django version 1.9.10, using settings 'crudlfap_example.settings'
Starting development server at http://127.0.0.1:8000/
Quit the server with CONTROL-C.

Extra note: it doesn't matter if migrate crashes for now, since django runserver doesn't support not being able to connect to database. So most of the time I hope to shouldn't need to disable this hack.
