It wraps settings in a SettingsHolder class that lets you access configuration values as object attributes rather than dictionary keys, making code more readable and IDE-friendly.\n\nThe package automatically listens to Django's `setting_changed` signal, so user-defined settings are reloaded without requiring manual intervention. It also supports dot-notation imports (e.g., 'mymodule.myfunction') that are resolved automatically, and allows you to attach validators to settings that run when they are first accessed. This is particularly useful for Django packages that expose their own configuration options and want a clean, maintainable way to manage them.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you are developing a Django extension or package that needs to expose configuration options. The library is actively maintained, has no security vulnerabilities, and integrates cleanly with Django's settings system. For general Django projects not writing extensions, it adds little value."},"id":"django-settings-holder","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/django-settings-holder","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/django-settings-holder.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/django-settings-holder/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2025-04-27","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"django-settings-holder","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"Object that allows settings to be accessed with attributes."},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":157395,"position":10758,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"0.3.0"}
