A simple middleware to capture useful profiling information in Django.
- Django 1.10+
- django-security 0.9.0+
This is intended to be a simple method for capturing useful profiling information from Django for specific requests without interrupting the normal program flow or requiring any database tables etc. It makes use of the builtin python logging facilities to dump individual requests as a single log message and leaving your log configuration to figure out what to do with it.
Install as usual for a middleware:
MIDDLEWARES = (
...
see_profile.ProfilingMiddleware
...
)
If you're interested in profiling what's being done in the other middlewares you can put it higher in the middleware listing, but if you're just interested in view-specific profiling it is recommended to have it fairly close to the end of the middlewares list.
To activate the middleware, set ENABLE_PROFILING to True, otherwise set it
to false to deactivate.
The middleware by default does not log every request as it is a performance hit
and would be fairly noisy when trying to profile in a busy environment, so for
requests that you desire profiled you are expected to set an X-Profile HTTP
header for the request. The value is immaterial at this time.
All logged requests are sent to the profiling logger at the DEBUG level,
so you will need to configure a relevant logger & handler for that.
