Supplementing settings in settings_local

Vladimir Sidorenko

For local project settings, I use old trick with settings_local file:

false

So in settings_local.py we can override variables from settings.py. I didn't know how to supplement them. For example how to add line to INSTALLED_APPSwithout copying whole list.

Yesterday I finally understood that I can import settings from settings_local:

false

Update

Now, couple years later I prefer having separate settings file for different environments, as it is described in 2 scoops of django.

Char search in Emacs as in Vim

In VIM there is a command for char search: f. After first use it can be repeated with ;. I like to navigate in line with it. You see that you need to go to bracket in a middle of a line - you press f( and one-two ; and you are there. There's no such command in Emacs, so I had to write my own. I've managed even to implement repetition with ;.
