Hello, Just sending general heads up that this bit of knowledge exists, but this is Justin Myles Holmes talking about the "unsettings" project, that is the idea of removing `settings.py`. https://soundcloud.com/elena/django-news-podcast-18-may-2014#t=7m33s This is actuall

Hi, I'd like to describe how we've solved the per-package settings issue at our company. Here's a little source code example: https://gist.github.com/wkornewald/9109270 Every Python package defines a module with a Config instance and then sets default settings on it. Instead of defining

Hi folks, Let me make a stab at the 1000ft view for this. TLDR: Django modules should work as libraries (e.g. ORM, mail, etc). "from django.conf import settings" bootstrap undermines this. unsetting begins a path to support the legacy structure, but still allows for the 'librarification' of
