I am very new to Django so this might be a basic question but I am not able to find how to implement it.
So I have an app in my Django project, lets call it player. In the apps.py I want to add some settings that are specific to this app. So the code is like:
from django.apps import AppConfig
class PlayerConfig(AppConfig):
name = 'player'
player_key = 'GJHGJGJJKJK'
Now I have another app named engine. This has a serializer.py in which I want to create to create a player_engine and pass the player.player_key to it.
so my serializer has a piece of code that looks like this:
from engines import player_engine
class EngineSerializer(serializers.ModelSerializer):
class Meta:
# some meta configuration values here
...
def validate(self, data)
player_engine = PlayerEngine(player.player_key)
#in above method, I want to know to pass player.player_key
...
I know there might be better way to structure this etc, however this is a legacy Django implementation and I cannot restructure things, so I would really appreciate if anyone can point me to a solution keeping this structure intact.
Ideally I want to know if there is way app level settings can somehow be clubbed into the settings available in django's settings.py
