---------------------------------+--------------------
Currently enabling the cached template loader is a lot of effort, you'll
have to change your settings from something like this:
{{{
TEMPLATES = [{
'BACKEND': 'django.template.backends.django.DjangoTemplates',
'DIRS': [os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'templates')],
'APP_DIRS': True
}]
}}}
To this:
{{{
TEMPLATES = [{
'BACKEND': 'django.template.backends.django.DjangoTemplates',
'DIRS': [os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'templates')],
'OPTIONS': {
'loaders': [
('django.template.loaders.cached.Loader', [
'django.template.loaders.filesystem.Loader',
'django.template.loaders.app_directories.Loader',
]),
],
},
}]
}}}
Making sure you don't forget to take out the `APP_DIRS` option, figuring
out what loaders to use and getting the nesting of tuples and lists just
right.
I propose adding an option the Django template engine called
`cache_templates` to simplify all of this. Making the second example look
more like this:
{{{
TEMPLATES = [{
'BACKEND': 'django.template.backends.django.DjangoTemplates',
'DIRS': [os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'templates')],
'APP_DIRS': True
'OPTIONS': {'cache_templates': DEBUG}
}]
}}}
