Environment variables
  • DJANGO_CHAINSAW_PROJECT_PATHrequiredAbsolute path to the Django project to analyse - the directory containing manage.py, or whichever directory the settings module is importable from. This server must run in an interpreter that can import that project, so install it into the project's own environment rather than an isolated one.
  • DJANGO_CHAINSAW_SETTINGS_MODULErequiredDotted path to the settings module, for example myproject.settings. Point it at the settings the site actually runs on: a base or partial module can import cleanly and load no models, and the server says so when that happens.

A starting point — check the repository for exact arguments and setup. Restart your client after editing the config.

Nice for visibility, but GitHub marks README links nofollow, so it doesn't pass authority. Use the HTML badge on your site as well.
