Django-fastdev is an app that makes it faster and more fun to develop Django apps.

Features

Saner templates

Django templates by default hide errors, and when it does show an error it’s often not very helpful. This app will change this so that if you do:

{{ does_not_exist }}

instead of rendering that as an empty string, this app will give you an error message:

does_not_exist does not exist in context. Available top level variables:

    DEFAULT_MESSAGE_LEVELS
    False
    None
    True
    bar
    csrf_token
    foo
    messages
    perms
    request
    user

There are more specialized error messages for when you try to access the contents of a dict, and attributes of an object a few levels deep like foo.bar.baz (where baz doesn’t exist).

Usage

First install: pip install django-fastdev

In settings.py add django_fastdev to INSTALLED_APPS:

 INSTALLED_APPS = [
     # ...
     'django_fastdev',
]

Enjoy a nicer Django experience!
