You -can just define the keys differing from the default, and Django will simply -merge your setting value with the default value. For example, if you define -:setting:`CACHES` so:: - - CACHES = { - 'special': { - 'BACKEND': 'django.core.cache.backends.memcached.MemcachedCache', - 'LOCATION': '127.0.0.1:11211', - } - } - -then ``CACHES['default']`` which is set by default in Django's global settings -will still be defined, as well as the new ``'special'`` cache backend. - -If you want your setting to completely override the default value, you can add -a ``_clear_defaults`` key with a ``True`` value to the dictionary. - Using settings in Python code ============================= |
