django-network-conditions 1.1.1

Delay the response to simulate the real network conditions

============== django-network-conditions

A Django package to simulate different network conditions during local development.

Set Up

Setting up django-network-conditions is easy. After it is installed in your environemnt and on your path, simply add the middleware class to your MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES list::

MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES = (
    ...
    'django_network_conditions.middleware.LatencyMiddleware',
    ...
)

django_network_conditions optionally accepts a settings variable called NETWORK_CONDITIONS. Currently, NETWORK_CONDITIONS is a dictionary whose keys are 'DEBUG_ONLY', 'LATENCY', 'KB_PER_SECOND', 'JITTER', 'TIMEOUT_PCT', 'PRINT_LOGS'.

For example::

NETWORK_CONDITIONS = {
    'DEBUG_ONLY': True, # default True. means only runs in DEBUG mode.
    'LATENCY': 20, # millis delay before start sending response
    'KB_PER_SECOND': 1024, # speed to send the response,
    'JITTER': 10, # millis standard deviation in latency. 0 = no jitter otherwise gaussian,
    'TIMEOUT_PCT': 5, #the percentage of requests that time out
    'PRINT_LOGS': False # if True, it shows the status.
}
