====================
Django Debug Toolbar
====================
The Django Debug Toolbar is a configurable set of panels that display various
debug information about the current request/response. It is a small toolbar
that, when activated, situates itself in the top-right location of the browser
window. When particular panels are clicked, more details about that panel's
content are displayed.
Currently, the following panels have been written and are working:
- Django version
- SQL queries including time to execute
- Request timer
- Common HTTP headers
- GET/POST variable display
- Cache stats
- Templates used and template directories
If you have ideas for other panels please let us know.
Installation
============
#. Add the `debug_toolbar` directory to your Python path.
#. Add the following middleware to your project's `settings.py` file:
``'debug_toolbar.middleware.DebugToolbarMiddleware',``
Tying into middleware allows each panel to be instantiated on request and
rendering to happen on response.
The order of MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES is important: the Debug Toolbar middleware
must come after any other middleware that encodes the response's content
(such as GZipMiddleware).
#. Make sure your IP is listed in the `INTERNAL_IPS` setting. If you are
working locally this will be:
INTERNAL_IPS = ('127.0.0.1',)
#. Add `debug_toolbar` to your `INSTALLED_APPS` setting so Django can find the
the template files associated with the Debug Toolbar.
Alternatively, add the path to the debug toolbar templates
(``'path/to/debug_toolbar/templates'`` to your ``TEMPLATE_DIRS`` setting.)
#. Optional: Add a tuple called `DEBUG_TOOLBAR_PANELS` to your ``settings.py``
file that specifies the full Python path to the panel that you want included
in the Toolbar. This setting looks very much like the `MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES`
setting. For example::
DEBUG_TOOLBAR_PANELS = (
'debug_toolbar.panels.version.VersionDebugPanel',
'debug_toolbar.panels.timer.TimerDebugPanel',
'debug_toolbar.panels.headers.HeaderDebugPanel',
'debug_toolbar.panels.request_vars.RequestVarsDebugPanel',
'debug_toolbar.panels.sql.SQLDebugPanel',
'debug_toolbar.panels.cache.CacheDebugPanel',
'debug_toolbar.panels.template.TemplateDebugPanel',
)
You can change the ordering of this tuple to customize the order of the
panels you want to display. And you can include panels that you have created
or that are specific to your project.
TODO
====
- Panel idea: Show some commonly used settings from settings.py
- Panel idea: AJAX call to show cprofile data similar to the ?prof idea
- CSS Stylings
