# For writing log to another DB

},
}
# Create DB automatically (for postgres, and may be mysql).

# List of response statuses, which logged. By default - all logged.
# Don't use with ACTIVITYLOG_EXCLUDE_STATUSES
ACTIVITYLOG_STATUSES = (200, )
# List of response statuses, which ignores. Don't use with ACTIVITYLOG_STATUSES
# ACTIVITYLOG_EXCLUDE_STATUSES = (302, )
# URL substrings, which ignores
