Configuration ============= The debug toolbar provides two settings that you can add in your project's settings module to customize its behavior. .. note:: Do you really need a customized configuration? The debug toolbar ships with a default configuration that is considered sane for the vast majority of Django projects. Don't copy-paste blindly the default values shown below into you settings module! It's useless and it'll prevent you from taking advantage of better defaults that may be introduced in future releases. DEBUG_TOOLBAR_PATCH_SETTINGS ---------------------------- This setting defines whether the toolbar will attempt to automatically adjust your project's settings, as described in the :doc:`installation instructions `. By default it has the same value as your ``DEBUG`` setting. DEBUG_TOOLBAR_PANELS -------------------- This setting specifies the full Python path to each panel that you want included in the toolbar. It works like Django's ``MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES`` setting. The default value is:: DEBUG_TOOLBAR_PANELS = [ 'debug_toolbar.panels.versions.VersionsPanel', 'debug_toolbar.panels.timer.TimerPanel', 'debug_toolbar.panels.settings.SettingsPanel', 'debug_toolbar.panels.headers.HeadersPanel', 'debug_toolbar.panels.request.RequestPanel', 'debug_toolbar.panels.sql.SQLPanel', 'debug_toolbar.panels.staticfiles.StaticFilesPanel', 'debug_toolbar.panels.templates.TemplatesPanel', 'debug_toolbar.panels.cache.CachePanel', 'debug_toolbar.panels.signals.SignalsPanel', 'debug_toolbar.panels.logging.LoggingPanel', 'debug_toolbar.panels.redirects.RedirectsPanel', ] This setting allows you to: * add built-in panels that aren't enabled by default, * add third-party panels, * remove built-in panels, * change the order of panels. DEBUG_TOOLBAR_CONFIG -------------------- This dictionary contains all other configuration options. Some apply to the toolbar itself, others are specific to some panels. Toolbar options ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ * ``DISABLE_PANELS`` Default: ``set(['debug_toolbar.panels.redirects.RedirectsPanel'])`` This setting is a set of the full Python paths to each panel that you want disabled (but still displayed) by default. * ``INSERT_BEFORE`` Default: ``''`` The toolbar searches for this string in the HTML and inserts itself just before. * ``JQUERY_URL`` Default: ``'//ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.0/jquery.min.js'`` URL of the copy of jQuery that will be used by the toolbar. Set it to a locally-hosted version of jQuery for offline development. Make it empty to rely on a version of jQuery that already exists on every page of your site. * ``RENDER_PANELS`` Default: ``None`` If set to ``False``, the debug toolbar will keep the contents of panels in memory on the server and load them on demand. If set to ``True``, it will render panels inside every page. This may slow down page rendering but it's required on multi-process servers, for example if you deploy the toolbar in production (which isn't recommended). The default value of ``None`` tells the toolbar to automatically do the right thing depending on whether the WSGI container runs multiple processes. This setting allows you to force a different behavior if needed. * ``RESULTS_STORE_SIZE`` Default: ``10`` The toolbar keeps up to this many results in memory. * ``ROOT_TAG_EXTRA_ATTRS`` Default: ``''`` This setting is injected in the root template div in order to avoid conflicts with client-side frameworks. For example, when using the debug toolbar with Angular.js, set this to ``'ng-non-bindable'`` or ``'class="ng-non-bindable"'``. * ``SHOW_COLLAPSED`` Default: ``False`` If changed to ``True``, the toolbar will be collapsed by default. * ``SHOW_TOOLBAR_CALLBACK`` Default: 'debug_toolbar.middleware.show_toolbar' This is the dotted path to a function used for determining whether the toolbar should show or not. The default checks are that ``DEBUG`` must be set to ``True``, the IP of the request must be in ``INTERNAL_IPS``, and the request must no be an AJAX request. You can provide your own function ``callback(request)`` which returns ``True`` or ``False``. Panel options ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ * ``EXTRA_SIGNALS`` Default: ``[]`` Panel: signals A list of custom signals that might be in your project, defined as the Python path to the signal. * ``ENABLE_STACKTRACES`` Default: ``True`` Panels: cache, SQL If set to ``True``, this will show stacktraces for SQL queries and cache calls. Enabling stacktraces can increase the CPU time used when executing queries. * ``HIDE_IN_STACKTRACES`` Default: ``('socketserver', 'threading', 'wsgiref', 'debug_toolbar', 'django')``. The first value is ``socketserver`` on Python 3 and ``SocketServer`` on Python 2. Panels: cache, SQL Useful for eliminating server-related entries which can result in enormous DOM structures and toolbar rendering delays. * ``PROFILER_MAX_DEPTH`` Default: ``10`` Panel: profiling This setting affects the depth of function calls in the profiler's analysis. * ``SHOW_TEMPLATE_CONTEXT`` Default: ``True`` Panel: templates If set to ``True`` then a template's context will be included with it in the template debug panel. Turning this off is useful when you have large template contexts, or you have template contexts with lazy datastructures that you don't want to be evaluated. * ``SQL_WARNING_THRESHOLD`` Default: ``500`` Panel: SQL The SQL panel highlights queries that took more that this amount of time, in milliseconds, to execute. Here's what a slightly customized toolbar configuration might look like:: # This example is unlikely to be appropriate for your project. CONFIG_DEFAULTS = { # Toolbar options 'RESULTS_STORE_SIZE': 3, 'SHOW_COLLAPSED': True, # Panel options 'SQL_WARNING_THRESHOLD': 100, # milliseconds }
