====================== django-memcache-status

This app displays the current load and some statistics for your memcached_ instances in the index view of your Django admin section.

Currently these memcached bindings are tested:

========================================================= ================================ Backend Support ========================================================= ================================ django.core.cache.backends.memcached.PyLibMCCache ✅ Works fine django.core.cache.backends.memcached.PyMemcacheCache ❎ Does not provide stats ========================================================= ================================

Other bindings may provide statistics too.

Installation

First add memcache_status to your INSTALLED_APPS list.

::

INSTALLED_APPS = [
    # ...
    'memcache_status',
]

Then you have two options:

1. The quickest way is to replace your Django Admin index page with the one provided by django-memcache-status. This will show the memcache stats in the top left column. This was the regular behavior of django-memcache-status prior to version 2.0.

   Place this in any admin.py file of your project::

   from django.contrib import admin admin.site.index_template = 'memcache_status/admin_index.html'

2. If you need to manually place the stats, simply add the CSS file and include the memcache-status template anywhere you like::

   {% include "memcache_status/memcache_status.html" %}

Local Development

Install the package using Pipenv and run the tests::

$ pipenv install --dev
$ pipenv run test

You can test against a matrix of Python and Django versions using tox::

$ tox

Once run you will see a coverage report in /tmp/coverage_report/django-memcache-status.

You can run a local runserver with the test application to see the admin::

$ pipenv run django-admin.py migrate
$ pipenv run django-admin.py createsuperuser
$ pipenv run django-admin.py runserver

To test a specific cache backend define it in the env variable::

$ TEST_CACHE_BACKEND=django-pylibmc pipenv run django-admin.py runserver

.. note:: If you're testing pylibmc on OS X and you get an error like 'libmemcached/memcached.h' file not found, install pylibmc manually, then run the installation again::

$ brew install libmemcached
$ pipenv run pip install pylibmc --install-option="--with-libmemcached=/usr/local/Cellar/libmemcached/1.0.18_2/"
$ pipenv install --dev
