Django snippets

"""

Using the below, you can then issue commands like the following from the shell

DJANGO_ENVIRONMENT=dev /path/to/manage.py shell
DJANGO_ENVIRONMENT=dev /path/to/manage.py runfcgi
etc etc

You can also use this very nicely with supervisord and uwsgi.

ALSO, you can have individual settings based on the local server hostname:

import socket
if socket.gethostname() == 'sws01.internal':
    pass
else:
    pass

etc etc
