Accessing Mailman 3 list members via Python/Django management console

I am trying to access members of an existing Mailman 3 mailing list directly from Django Management console on a Debian Bullseye where Mailman is installed from deb packages (mailman3-full). I can connect to the Django admin console like this (all 3 variants seem to work fine):

$ /usr/share/mailman3-web/manage.py shell
$ mailman-web shell
$ mailman-web shell --settings /etc/mailman3/mailman-web.py
Python 3.9.2 (default, Feb 28 2021, 17:03:44)
>>>

But inside the Django admin console, some mailman components seem to be missing.

I try to access the list manager as described here: Docs > Models > The mailing list manager:

>>> from mailman.interfaces.listmanager import IListManager
>>> from zope.component import getUtility
>>> list_manager = getUtility(IListManager)
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<console>", line 1, in <module>
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/zope/component/_api.py", line 169, in getUtility
    raise ComponentLookupError(interface, name)
zope.interface.interfaces.ComponentLookupError: (<InterfaceClass mailman.interfaces.listmanager.IListManager>, '')

Can't figure out why this ComponentLookupError happens.

Also tried to acccess a list with the ListManager implementation:

>>> from mailman.config import config
>>> from mailman.model.listmanager import ListManager
>>> list_manager = ListManager()

>>> list_manager.get('[email protected]')
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<console>", line 1, in <module>
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/mailman/database/transaction.py", line 85, in wrapper
    return function(args[0], config.db.store, *args[1:], **kws)
AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'store'

>>> list_manager.get_by_list_id('mynews.example.com')
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<console>", line 1, in <module>
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/mailman/database/transaction.py", line 85, in wrapper
    return function(args[0], config.db.store, *args[1:], **kws)
AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'store'

What am I doing wrong here? None of the examples in the Mailman 3 models documentation is working if I don't even get that far.

any help greatly appreciated!

It's just the wrong shell you are using. You should use Mailman core shell instead.

It is accessible via just mailman shell in your system most probably.
