Django debug toolbar setup

Question

I have just installed the Django debug toolbar. It was slightly fiddly and although it is working I wanted to check if this is the correct way. Here are the 4 steps that I need to achieve success:

1. easy_install django_debug_toolbar
2. add 'debug_toolbar.middleware.DebugToolbarMiddleware', to the end of my middleware classes in my project settings
3. edit INTERNAL_IPS = ('127.0.0.1') in my django.global_settings.py
4. then I added "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/django_debug_toolbar-0.8.5-py2.7.egg/debug_toolbar/templates" to my TEMPLATE_DIRS in project settings.

This was largely trial and error so I'm not sure this is the way to go. I am oarticoluarly unsure if step 4 is necessary...

Any input would be much appreciated

Answer 1

I was having the same problems. But, I think I figured it out. I believe the step you are missing is to add 'debug_toolbar' to your projects setting.py INSTALLED_APPS tuple. This solves it for me. Here is a link to the article that I used as a reference.

Answer 2

INTERNAL_IPS应该是列表或元组，而不是字符串，因此：

INTERNAL_IPS = ('127.0.0.1', )   # note, comma

Answer 3

You have to flow the command Like this:

1.install:
pip install django-debug-toolber
2.settings.py
INSTALLED_APPS = [
    .,
    .,
    'debug_toolbar'
]
MIDDLEWARE = [
    'debug_toolbar.middleware.DebugToolbarMiddleware',
    .,
    .

    
]
INTERNAL_IPS = [
    '127.0.0.1',

]
3. urls.py
import debug_toolbar
urlpatterns = [
  path('admin/', admin.site.urls),
  path('__debug__/', include('debug_toolbar.urls')),

  ] 

Now you can see the debug_toolbarin when you hit the url.
