Comment (by aaugustin): I'm not sure what's wrong with: {{{ class CustomRemoteUserMiddleware(RemoteUserMiddleware): header = os.environ['DJANGO_REMOTE_USER_VAR'] }}} Features are usually configured with settings in Django. In "devops environments" these settings are initialized from environment variables. I'm -0 on adding a setting to tackle this specific use case and -1 on using a environment variable that won't be visible e.g. in `diffsettings`. -- Ticket URL: <https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/26623#comment:3> Django <https://code.djangoproject.com/> The Web framework for perfectionists with deadlines. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django updates" group.
