Package: django-debug-toolbar-django13
The Django Debug Toolbar is a configurable set of panels that display various
debug information about the current request/response and when clicked, display
more details about the panel’s content.Currently, the following panels have been written and are working:Django versionRequest timerA list of settings in settings.pyCommon HTTP headersGET/POST/cookie/session variable displayTemplates and context used, and their template pathsSQL queries including time to execute and links to EXPLAIN each queryList of signals, their args and receiversLogging output via Python’s built-in logging moduleThere is also one Django management command currently:debugsqlshell: Outputs the SQL that gets executed as you work in the Python
interactive shell.  (See example below)If you have ideas for other panels please let us know.InstallationAdd thedebug_toolbardirectory to your Python path.Add the following middleware to your project’ssettings.pyfile:'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).Note: The debug toolbar will only display itself if the mimetype of the
response is eithertext/htmlorapplication/xhtml+xmland contains a
closing</body>tag.Note: Be aware of middleware ordering and other middleware that may
intercept requests and return responses.  Putting the debug toolbar
middlewareafterthe Flatpage middleware, for example, means the
toolbar will not show up on flatpages.Make sure your IP is listed in theINTERNAL_IPSsetting.  If you are
working locally this will be:INTERNAL_IPS = (‘127.0.0.1’,)Note: This is required because of the built-in requirements of theshow_toolbarmethod.  See below for how to define a method to determine
your own logic for displaying the toolbar.Adddebug_toolbarto yourINSTALLED_APPSsetting so Django can find the
template files associated with the Debug Toolbar.Alternatively, add the path to the debug toolbar templates
('path/to/debug_toolbar/templates'to yourTEMPLATE_DIRSsetting.)ConfigurationThe debug toolbar has two settings that can be set insettings.py:Optional: Add a tuple calledDEBUG_TOOLBAR_PANELSto yoursettings.pyfile that specifies the full Python path to the panel that you want included
in the Toolbar.  This setting looks very much like theMIDDLEWARE_CLASSESsetting.  For example:DEBUG_TOOLBAR_PANELS = (
    'debug_toolbar.panels.version.VersionDebugPanel',
    'debug_toolbar.panels.timer.TimerDebugPanel',
    'debug_toolbar.panels.settings_vars.SettingsVarsDebugPanel',
    'debug_toolbar.panels.headers.HeaderDebugPanel',
    'debug_toolbar.panels.request_vars.RequestVarsDebugPanel',
    'debug_toolbar.panels.template.TemplateDebugPanel',
    'debug_toolbar.panels.sql.SQLDebugPanel',
    'debug_toolbar.panels.signals.SignalDebugPanel',
    'debug_toolbar.panels.logger.LoggingPanel',
)You can change the ordering of this tuple to customize the order of the
panels you want to display, or add/remove panels.  If you have custom panels
you can include them in this way – just provide the full Python path to
your panel.Optional: There are a few configuration options to the debug toolbar that
can be placed in a dictionary:INTERCEPT_REDIRECTS: If set to True (default), the debug toolbar will
show an intermediate page upon redirect so you can view any debug
information prior to redirecting.  This page will provide a link to the
redirect destination you can follow when ready.  If set to False, redirects
will proceed as normal.SHOW_TOOLBAR_CALLBACK: If not set or set to None, the debug_toolbar
middleware will use its built-in show_toolbar method for determining whether
the toolbar should show or not.  The default checks are that DEBUG must be
set to True and the IP of the request must be in INTERNAL_IPS.  You can
provide your own method for displaying the toolbar which contains your
custom logic.  This method should return True or False.EXTRA_SIGNALS: An array of custom signals that might be in your project,
defined as the python path to the signal.HIDE_DJANGO_SQL: If set to True (the default) then code in Django itself
won’t be shown in SQL stacktraces.SHOW_TEMPLATE_CONTEXT: If set to True (the default) 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.TAG: If set, this will be the tag to which debug_toolbar will attach the
debug toolbar. Defaults to ‘body’.Example configuration:def custom_show_toolbar(request):
    return True # Always show toolbar, for example purposes only.

DEBUG_TOOLBAR_CONFIG = {
    'INTERCEPT_REDIRECTS': False,
    'SHOW_TOOLBAR_CALLBACK': custom_show_toolbar,
    'EXTRA_SIGNALS': ['myproject.signals.MySignal'],
    'HIDE_DJANGO_SQL': False,
    'TAG': 'div',
