I have a common.py, dev.py, and prod.py for my Django settings files. All 
files inherit from common.py. I want to keep my database passwords, 
database URL, etc stored as environment variables. I have researched the 
topic but I am not sure If I have a clear understanding of it. I am hoping 
I can get a more comprehensive answer via this forum. This is what I have 
thus far: 


*In your bash shell type:*

export SOMEAPP_DB_USER='someapp'
export SOMEAPP_DB_PASSWORD='1234'

*In my Django settings file type*:

DATABASE_USER = os.environ.get("SOMEAPP_DB_USER", ")
DATABASE_PASSWORD = os.environ.get("SOMEAPP_DB_PASSWORD", ")

So are my passwords stored in just a terminal session? or are they being 
stored in something like my bash_profile? 

Thanks.
