This utiliy is based on dj-database-url by Kenneth Reitz.
It allows to utilize the 12factor inspired environments variable to configure the email backend in a Django application.
Usage
Configure your email configuration values in settings.py from EMAIL_URL:
email_config = dj_email_url.config()
Parse an arbitrary email URL:

After this, it is necessary to assign values to settings:
EMAIL_FILE_PATH = email_config['EMAIL_FILE_PATH'] EMAIL_HOST_USER = email_config['EMAIL_HOST_USER'] EMAIL_HOST_PASSWORD = email_config['EMAIL_HOST_PASSWORD'] EMAIL_HOST = email_config['EMAIL_HOST'] EMAIL_PORT = email_config['EMAIL_PORT'] EMAIL_BACKEND = email_config['EMAIL_BACKEND']
Supported backends
Currently, it supports:
SMTP backend (smtp or smtps),
console backend (console),
file backend (file),
in-memory backend (memory),
and dummy backend (dummy).
The scheme smtps indicates to use TLS connections, that is to set EMAIL_USE_TLS to True.
The file backend is the only one which needs a path. The url path is store in EMAIL_FILE_PATH key.
