Django doesn't have a specifically analogous concept, but there is a way to get the same functionality. Write a different settings file for each 'environment', and use the --settings option on manage.py (or the DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE environment variable if you're using mod_python/fcgi) to point to each settings file. If there are settings common to all environments (INSTALLED_APPS should be fairly common), you can put the common settings into a file, then put from common_settings import * at the top of each of your environment-specific settings files. > > If you want a more elaborate example, use ./manage.py dumpdata > > --format=yaml > What I get: > > > [EMAIL PROTECTED] weblog]$ ./manage.py dumpdata --format=yaml > > Unknown serialization format: yaml > > Unable to serialize database: 'yaml' > > None > > [EMAIL PROTECTED] weblog]$ > > I've done a svn update to the trunk, just in case, and still... Ah - Sorry. I forgot to mention that you need to have pyyaml (http://pyyaml.org/) installed. If it isn't the YAML serializer will be disabled.
