Re: Settings in Pythoncode

The answer:
I compare my variable with the other setting-variables. All other variables 
are uppercases (-> constant). When I write my variable big, it works.

Your error is probably because the definition is evaluated at import time, 
when the values from settings.py have not yet been added to the 
django.conf.settings object. This would work better:

def num2short(num, base_string=None):
if base_string is None:
base_string = settings.codec_base_string

Settings in Pythoncode

[Stefano Probst]

Hi!
I want to access variables in my code like in the 
docs.
 
I have a code like the following in settings.py:

> codec_baseString = "...XYZ:::"
>
In a other file (common.py):

> from django.conf import settings
> def num2short(num, baseString = settings.codec_baseString):
> 
> 

I get the error "'Settings' object has no attribute 'codec_baseString' ". 
In the docs stand:

> Note that django.conf.settings isn't a module -- it's an object. So

Refer this sentence to the example after the sentence or to my plan with my 
own variable?
