It automatically configures database connections via DATABASE_URL, serves static files through WhiteNoise, sets up logging, and enables Heroku CI test runners\u2014all with a single call to `django_heroku.settings(locals())` in your Django settings file. You can selectively disable any of these features by passing keyword arguments.\n\nThe package depends on dj-database-url, whitenoise, psycopg2, and django. It was designed for Django 2.0 but claims compatibility with older versions. However, the library has been archived and unmaintained since 2018-03-01. This means it will not receive updates for modern Django or Python versions, and Heroku's deployment or CI environment may have evolved in ways that break its assumptions.","worth_installing":"No, unless you are maintaining a legacy Django application already deployed on Heroku and cannot migrate. The package is abandoned (last release 2018-03-01, archived repository), will not receive updates for modern Django or Python versions, and Heroku's own tooling or modern alternatives are likely more reliable. For new projects, configure Heroku settings manually or use actively maintained alternatives."},"id":"django-heroku","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/django-heroku","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/django-heroku.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/django-heroku/"},"maintenance":{"status":"abandoned"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2018-03-01","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"django-heroku","python_support":"unspecified","summary":"This is a Django library for Heroku apps."},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":88999,"position":13687,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"0.3.1"}
