django_heroku

✓ import django_heroku

✗ from django_heroku import ...

Import the module, then call django_heroku.settings(locals())

import django_heroku import django.conf.settings as settings # At the bottom of settings.py: django_heroku.settings(settings)

Known issues

deprecatedThis library is in maintenance mode. The official approach is to use whitenoise, dj-database-url, and gunicorn manually.

fix

Instead of using django-heroku, manually configure using whitenoise and dj-database-url as described in Heroku's official Django guide.

affects: all

gotchadjango_heroku.settings(locals()) must be called AFTER all other settings. If called before, it can override your custom settings like STATICFILES_STORAGE.

fix

Ensure the call is the absolute last line in settings.py.

Errors

Common errors & fixes

ImportError: No module named 'django_heroku'

Missing pip install or virtualenv not activated.

fix

Run pip install django-heroku and ensure your virtualenv is active.

TypeError: settings() missing 1 required positional argument: 'django_settings_module'

Calling django_heroku.settings() without passing the settings module (usually locals()).

fix

Use django_heroku.settings(locals()) instead of just django_heroku.settings().
