import os # test_settings.py works differently from # dev_settings.py/prod_settings.py; it actually is directly referenced # by the test suite as DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE and imports settings.py # directly and then hacks up the values that are different for the # test suite. As will be explained, this is kinda messy and probably # we'd be better off switching it to work more like dev_settings.py, # but for now, this is what we have. # # An important downside of the test_settings.py approach is that if we # want to change any settings that settings.py then computes # additional settings from (e.g. EXTERNAL_HOST), we need to do a hack # like the below line(s) before we import from settings, for # transmitting the value of EXTERNAL_HOST to dev_settings.py so that # it can be set there, at the right place in the settings.py flow. # Ick. os.environ["EXTERNAL_HOST"] = os.getenv("TEST_EXTERNAL_HOST", "testserver") from .settings import * # noqa: F401,F403 isort: skip from .test_extra_settings import * # noqa: F401,F403 isort: skip # Do not add any code after these wildcard imports! Add it to # test_extra_settings instead.
