Installation

$ pip install django-doctor

Fix

Run the fix suggestion wizard like so:

$ django_doctor fix

This runs a simple server on http://localhost:9000 and opens the wizard in your browser:

You then accept or reject the suggestions

And ultimately the selected changes are saved to your file system

You can change the address:

$ django_doctor fix --address=0.0.0.0 --port=9001

Your virtual environment directory is automatically skipped. To exclude other directories use the --ignore flag:

$ django_doctor fix --ignore=foo # single directory
$ django_doctor fix --ignore=foo --ignore=bar # multiple directories

You can also specify a directory to check instead of running on the current working directory. To run on only on "my_app" and "my_other_app":

$ django_doctor fix my_app my_other_app

Check

You can see suggested changes in your shell:

$ django_doctor check

Consider running this as a pre-commit hook, or on your CI to prevent new Django anti-patterns from being merged.

You can also use --ignore the same as with the fix command.

Configuration

You turn checks on/off with --disable and --enable. See here for the codenames of the checks.

Troubleshooting

Debugging

Try running django_doctor in verbose mode by adding --log-level=debug when executing the fix or check commands.

Parallelism

Django Doctor tries to speed up by creating a process per CPU. Your OS may not support this parallelism. To turn parallelism off specify --jobs=1 or change to any number you want.

Pipenv

If you're using pipenv you may need to do pipenv install django-doctor --pre because:

• django-doctor depends on black
• black only releases pre-releases
• pipenv ignores pre-releases
