Giant Error Pages

A small package to trigger specific non-200 HTTP responses. This is useful for previewing your error pages while DEBUG=True. Once enabled, you will be able to access three new routes:

• /errors/404/, which will return a 404 response and error page.
• /errors/403/, which will return a 403 response and error page.
• /errors/500/, which will return a 500 response and error page.

Installation

To install with Poetry, run:

$ poetry add giant-errorpages

You should then add "errorpages" to the INSTALLED_APPS in your settings file. Finally, update your root urlpatterns to include:

path("errors/", include("errorpages.urls"), name="errorpages"),

Preparing for release

In order to prepare the package for a new release on TestPyPi and PyPi, you need to update the version number in the pyproject.toml. The version numbering must also follow the Semantic Version rules which can be found here https://semver.org/.

Publishing

Once the version number has been updated, run:

$ poetry build

This will package the project ready for publication:

$ poetry publish

...will then publish the package to PyPi. You will need to enter the username and password for the account which can be found in the company password manager.
