Read settings from environment variables.
Project description
If you’re using django-dotenv to get the most out of your .env file, you want to use the values there in your Django project’s settings.
It will convert boolean, integer and float values to their native Python types.
There’s nothing here that is Django specific, but I’m using it with Django so that’s what I’ve called it.
Installation
pip install django-getenv
Usage
In your settings.py file (or equivalent), add:
from getenv import env
Then to read in your environment variables, do this:
SECRET_KEY = env("SECRET_KEY")
If you want to provide a default (in case the environment variable isn’t set), try:
SECRET_KEY = env("SECRET_KEY", "a_secret_key")
For best results, mix with django-dotenv and dj-database-url.
Download files
