Is there pluggable online python console?

Question

I'm thinking if there already is some sort of online live python console (web-based) with open source code available. Anyone know of anything? It would be really useful to have console in Django admin (like running python manage.py shell on the server's terminal), so it would be great to have django/any wsgi aplication, that can be used to enable web based live console access.

Thanks

You're looking for the Werkzug debugger.

http://werkzeug.pocoo.org/

It's got an interactive javascript based in-browser debugger for your WSGI projects, among many other great tools. Fantastic stuff.

For Django specifically, there's also RunServerPlus, which is part of the django-extensions package.

You should check out Python Anywhere. You can run python web apps, you get an SQL database, and you get a bash shell in your browser.
