Some of the project settings are taken from environment variables. To define them, create a .env file next to manage.py and write the data there in the following format: VARIABLE=value.

There are 3 variables available:

• DEBUG - debug mode. Set to True to see debugging information in case of an error.
• SECRET_KEY — secret key of the project
• DATABASE_FILEPATH - full path to the SQLite database file, for example: /home/user/schoolbase.sqlite3
• ALLOWED_HOSTS - see Django documentation
