Request History Panel for Django Debug Toolbar

Project description

Request History Panel for Django Debug Toolbar
==============================================

Adds a request history panel to [Django Debug Toolbar](https://github.com/django-debug-toolbar/django-debug-toolbar) for viewing stats for different requests (with the option for ajax support).


### Install ###

```bash
pip install git+https://github.com/djsutho/django-debug-toolbar-request-history.git
```

Add the panel to ```DEBUG_TOOLBAR_PANELS``` (see the config section for more details).


### Usage ###

Click on the "Request History" panel in the toolbar to load the available requests. Click on the request you are interested in (on the "Time" or "Path" part of the request) to load the toolbar for that request.

**Note:** currently requests do not survive server reload, therefore, when using the dev server old requests will not be available after a code change is loaded.


### Config (in settings.py) ###

To ```DEBUG_TOOLBAR_PANELS``` add ```'ddt_request_history.panels.request_history.RequestHistoryPanel'``` e.g.:

```python
DEBUG_TOOLBAR_PANELS = [
'ddt_request_history.panels.request_history.RequestHistoryPanel', # Here it is
'debug_toolbar.panels.versions.VersionsPanel',
'debug_toolbar.panels.timer.TimerPanel',
'debug_toolbar.panels.settings.SettingsPanel',
'debug_toolbar.panels.headers.HeadersPanel',
'debug_toolbar.panels.request.RequestPanel',
'debug_toolbar.panels.sql.SQLPanel',
'debug_toolbar.panels.templates.TemplatesPanel',
'debug_toolbar.panels.staticfiles.StaticFilesPanel',
'debug_toolbar.panels.cache.CachePanel',
'debug_toolbar.panels.signals.SignalsPanel',
'debug_toolbar.panels.logging.LoggingPanel',
'debug_toolbar.panels.redirects.RedirectsPanel',
'debug_toolbar.panels.profiling.ProfilingPanel',
]
```

To record ajax requests add ```SHOW_TOOLBAR_CALLBACK``` to ```DEBUG_TOOLBAR_CONFIG``` e.g.:

```python
DEBUG_TOOLBAR_CONFIG = {
'SHOW_TOOLBAR_CALLBACK': 'ddt_request_history.panels.request_history.allow_ajax',
}
```


To change the number of stored requests add ```RESULTS_STORE_SIZE``` to ```DEBUG_TOOLBAR_CONFIG``` e.g.:

```python
DEBUG_TOOLBAR_CONFIG = {
'RESULTS_STORE_SIZE': 100,
}
```


### TODO ###
* Clean-up
* Change the storage to survive server reloads (maybe use cache or session).
