=================== django-environ-plus

django-environ is the Python package that allows you to use Twelve-factor methodology <https://www.12factor.net/>_ to configure your Django application with environment variables.

.. -teaser-end-

For that, it gives you an easy way to configure Django application using environment variables obtained from an environment file and provided by the OS:

.. -code-begin-

.. code-block:: python

import environ import os

env = environ.Env( # set casting, default value DEBUG=(bool, False) )

Set the project base directory

BASE_DIR = os.path.dirname(os.path.dirname(os.path.abspath(file)))

Take environment variables from .env file

environ.Env.read_env(os.path.join(BASE_DIR, '.env'))

False if not in os.environ because of casting above

DEBUG = env('DEBUG')

Raises Django's ImproperlyConfigured

exception if SECRET_KEY not in os.environ

SECRET_KEY = env('SECRET_KEY')

Parse database connection url strings

like psql://user:pass@127.0.0.1:8458/db

DATABASES = { # read os.environ['DATABASE_URL'] and raises # ImproperlyConfigured exception if not found # # The db() method is an alias for db_url(). 'default': env.db(),

   # read os.environ['SQLITE_URL']
   'extra': env.db_url(
       'SQLITE_URL',
       default='sqlite:////tmp/my-tmp-sqlite.db'
   )

}

CACHES = { # Read os.environ['CACHE_URL'] and raises # ImproperlyConfigured exception if not found. # # The cache() method is an alias for cache_url(). 'default': env.cache(),

   # read os.environ['REDIS_URL']
   'redis': env.cache_url('REDIS_URL')

}

.. -overview-

The idea of this package is to unify a lot of packages that make the same stuff: Take a string from os.environ, parse and cast it to some of useful python typed variables. To do that and to use the 12factor <https://www.12factor.net/>_ approach, some connection strings are expressed as url, so this package can parse it and return a urllib.parse.ParseResult. These strings from os.environ are loaded from a .env file and filled in os.environ with setdefault method, to avoid to overwrite the real environ. A similar approach is used in Two Scoops of Django <https://www.feldroy.com/books/two-scoops-of-django-3-x>_ book and explained in 12factor-django <https://wellfire.co/learn/easier-12-factor-django>_ article.

Using django-environ you can stop to make a lot of unversioned settings_*.py to configure your app. See cookiecutter-django <https://github.com/cookiecutter/cookiecutter-django>_ for a concrete example on using with a django project.

Feature Support

  • Fast and easy multi environment for deploy
  • Fill os.environ with .env file variables
  • Variables casting
  • Url variables exploded to django specific package settings
  • Optional support for Docker-style file based config variables (use environ.FileAwareEnv instead of environ.Env)
