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
<installation>`. 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
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

* ``INSERT_BEFORE``

  Default: ``'</body>'``

  The toolbar searches for this string in the HTML and inserts itself just
  before.

* ``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 that
  accepts a request in argument and 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.

* ``INTERCEPT_REDIRECTS``

  Default: ``False``

  Panel: redirects

  If set to ``True``, the redirect panel will be active by default.

* ``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
        'INTERCEPT_REDIRECTS': True,
        'SQL_WARNING_THRESHOLD': 100,   # milliseconds
    }
