pdm-dotenv: Simplify Your Project's Environment Variable Management
Are you working on a Python project that uses pdm for dependency management and dotenv for local environment variable and secrets management? Do you find it frustrating when CLI tools like pgcli don't automatically pick up your .env file, forcing you to resort to npm install -g dotenv-cli? I've got a more convenient solution for you!

Don't know how to work with .gitignore, first time actively working on a public repo
Similarly, I use python-dotenv which reads environment variables, or variables set in a .env file. Then in your settings.py file you can do things like:

Writing unit tests, constants, and source control (GIT) question!?
Locally you may want to use a .env file that is also in .gitignore and python-dotenv to auto activate them. Also having an .env.template is also a good idea to help others working on the project know what they need to set in order for things to work.

Need help running Django at a local machine after deploying it
But there's no web UI to set them for your local dev version. But there are various Python modules that will read environment variables from a file named .env. I like https://github.com/theskumar/python-dotenv myself. So try using that - create a .env file for your local dev site and use dotenv instead of os.getenv() to read the environment variables.

Setting up Django in a Better Way in 5 Minutes and Understanding How It Works
This Django Starter kit takes care of automated creation of virtual environment and installing of Python packages and setting up the database with bash scripts. In addition to PostgreSQL and TailwindCSS, all the sensitive values are taken care of in a .env file using django-environ package. The virtual environment is maintained using pip-tools.

Tricks for starting a new project
I used to do this but recently switched to using environment variables and now prefer this approach. Essentially you keep the single settings.py file that is generated with startproject, and use os.environ or os.getenv to set certain settings. Check out the FeedHQ settings.py for an example. I use direnv to automatically set my environment variables on my local machine, but django-environ is a popular alternative.

Six things I do every time I start a Django project
You could also use just django-environ package to both import config from .env and set a database url instead of using 2 dependencies. I also think of a couple things I could add to the list, maybe I should a write a blog post as well?

A complete guide to organizing settings in Django
Docker does not do any quote parsing. For this same env file, it will set the value of the variable to `"foo"` (retaining the doublequotes in the value).
Bash, of course, requires quotes if the variable contains any special bash characters (for example, literal JSON with curly brackets), but its quote handling is much more complex. django-environ doesn't interpret bash code; it just does simple quote chomping.
There's no reliable .env syntax you can use that works in all 3 of django-environ, Docker, and bash; and any variable that should start and end with quotes that are not stripped off can't be expressed in a way that both Docker and django-environ will read in the same way.
This may seem like a nit-picking edge case, but it's indicative of the design philosophy in django-environ of trying to be "helpful", but in ways which lead to subtle confusion. The way it guesses the path to your `.env` file is another example.
