Installation

ENV

The env checks the execution mode and deployment status of the application and contains the following functions:

• exec_mode -> Gets the execution mode of the application. The options are normal, test, and e2e (accessed through EnvChoices)
• is_debug -> Checks the DEBUG constant in settings.py
• is_production -> Checks if the application is in the production mode. For the application to be in production mode, the DEBUG has to be false and exec_mode should be normal
• is_testing -> Checks if the application is in unit test or e2e test

In order for these functions to behave as intended, you need 3 settings to differentiate between the three execution modes. The execution mode is determined using EXEC_MODE constant. If no such constant is provided, the default value is normal. The name of the files is up to you:

• settings.py: The settings for the production. The DEBUG must be set to false.
• settings_dev.py: The settings for the development mode. This setting sets the DEBUG to false and detects if we are test command. It should have the following:

DEBUG = True
if 'test' in sys.argv:
    EXEC_MODE = "test"

• settings_e2e.py: The settings for the E2E tests, allowing you to differentiate between the E2E tests and normal dev server. It should contain the following:

DEBUG = True
EXEC_MODE = "e2e"
