Documentation

Plaf today gives you two methods:

To import a file just do:

>>> import plaf
>>> module = plaf.import_python_file('/path/to/my/pythonfile.py')
>>> module.something_defined_at_pythonfile
True

To update your settings, you have to give plaf two arguments:

• filepath -- Full path to a python file you want to import settings from
• context -- A dict with settings you want to be updated

>>> plaf.update_settings('/opt/project/dev/settings.py', locals())

I usually use at Django projects plaf.update_settings to override settings, instead of doing:

>>> try:
...     from local_settings.py import *
... except:
...     pass

I just prefer to use plaf.update_settings like:

>>> import plaf
>>> plaf.update_settings('/opt/project/devel/settings.py', locals())
