Hello everyone, I know a form of this question has been asked before on this group but I can't for the life of me find the thread.
I am wondering how I can have a generic settings.py file that contains all my basic settings and then have a settings-local.py (or whatever...) and have that contain custom settings such as DEBUG=True, etc... Ideally the settings-local.py file would *only* have the custom settings, and nothing else, but I cannot seem to get this to work. For example: In settings.py I would have default settings: settings.py ------------------------------------------- DEBUG = False DATABASE_ENGINE = 'mysql' DATABASE_NAME = 'something' DATABASE_USER = 'root' DATABASE_PASSWORD = '' MEDIA_ROOT = '/home/user/media/' MEDIA_URL = 'http://media.example.com/' ADMIN_MEDIA_PREFIX = '/admin_media/' INSTALLED_APPS = ( .... ) ...... etc ------------------------------------------- and in settings-local.py I would override the settings: # settings-local.py ------------------------------------------- DEBUG = True DATABASE_USER = 'username' DATABASE_PASSWORD = 'somethinghere123' ------------------------------------------- I would like some way to have settings-local import my settings.py file and then override specific settings. Anyone know how to do this cleanly? Thanks! --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
