Utils

• env_bool_flag(flag_name, strict) - check if ENV option specified, is it set to true, 1, 0, etc.

• run_env_once ensure django management don’t call twice <https://stackoverflow.com/questions/16546652/why-does-django-run-everything-twice>_

• is_dockerized - reads DOCKERIZED flag from env

• is_production - reads PRODUCTION flag from env

Management Helper functions

• ensure_databases_alive(max_retries=100) - tries to execute SELECT 1 for every specified database alias in DATABASES until success or max_retries reached

• ensure_caches_alive(max_retries=100) - tries to execute SELECT 1 for every specified cache alias in CACHES until success or max_retries reached

• migrate - executes ./manage.py migrate

• modeltranslation_sync_translation_fields - run sync_translation_fields if modeltranslation is present

• collect_static - alias for ./manage.py collectstatic -c --noinput -v0

• create_admin - create superuser from settings.CONFIG['superuser'] if user does not exists and user has no usable password

• run_gunicorn(application: WSGIHandler, gunicorn_module_name: str='gunicorn_prod') - runs gunicorn

Sample config

debug: true
    db:
        engine: django.db.backends.postgresql
        host: postgres
        port: 5432
        database: mydb
        user: mydb_user
        password: mydb_password
        conn_max_age: 60

Read config

import os
from django_docker_helpers.config import ConfigLoader, EnvironmentParser, RedisParser, YamlParser

yml_conf = '/tmp/my/config/without-docker.yml'
redis_conf = os.environ.get('DJANGO_CONFIG_REDIS_KEY', 'msa_cas/conf.yml')

parsers = [
    EnvironmentParser(),
    RedisParser(endpoint=redis_conf),
    YamlParser(config=yml_conf),
]
configure = ConfigLoader(parsers=parsers, silent=True)



DATABASES = {
    'default': {
        'ENGINE': configure('db.name', 'django.db.backends.postgresql'),
        'HOST': configure('db.host', 'localhost'),
        'PORT': configure('db.port', 5432),
        'NAME': configure('db.database', 'project_default'),
        'USER': configure('db.user', 'project_default'),
        'PASSWORD': configure('db.password', 'project_default'),
        'CONN_MAX_AGE': configure('db.conn_max_age', 60, coerce_type=int),
    }
}
