Django-Livesettings is a project split from the Satchmo Project. It provides the ability to configure settings via an admin interface, rather than by editing settings.py . In addition, livesettings allows you to set sane defaults so that your site can be perfectly functional without any changes. Livesettings uses caching to make sure this has minimal impact on your site’s performance.

Finally, if you wish to lock down your site and disable the settings, you can export your livesettings and store them in your settings.py . This allows you have flexibility in deciding how various users interact with your app.

Livesettings supports several types of input choices:

Boolean

Decimal

Duration

Float

Integer

Positive Integer (non negative)

String

Long string

Multiple strings

Long multiple strings

Module values

Password

Livesettings has been used for many years in the satchmo project and is considered stable and production ready.
