I am very new to Django and trying to configure python-decouple
to use .env variables. I am getting DB_PASSWORD not found. Declare it as envvar or define a default value.
when trying to run the server. The .env file is located in the root directory. Here is my code:
settings.py
import os
from decouple import config
DATABASES = {
'default': {
'ENGINE': 'django.db.backends.postgresql',
'NAME': 'db_development',
'USER': "db_user",
'PASSWORD': config('DB_PASSWORD'),
}
}
my_app.env
DB_PASSWORD=my_password
Change the name of the file: my_app.env
must be .env
.
From the source
code:
class AutoConfig(object):
"""
Autodetects the config file and type.
"""
SUPPORTED = {
'settings.ini': RepositoryIni,
'.env': RepositoryEnv,
}
