Models and URLSs (kind of) are namespaced by the *app_label*.
I am making a Django CSS app to open source, and it requires settings. For
now I am just going to copy DRF and use a dict to avoid collisions.
What if in *settings.py* we could do something like this (where one has an
app with an app_label of 'foo'):
FOO_SETTINGS = {
'POGO_STICKS': 5,
'MORE_SETTINGS': [1,2,3],
}
or (what I think is better) use class based approach:
# Here DjangoAppSettings is just a subclass of maybe a dataclass, to use in
isintance tests to find the settings (like how TestCase's are found).
FooSettings(DjangoAppSettings):
POGO_STICKS = 5
MORE_SETTINGS = [1,2,3]
Then in the app that consumes the settings, maybe do something like this
(or something different):
from django.conf import settings
apps.get_app_config('foo').settings
And it would return *FooSettings*
I have not given it much thought, but its just concept I am proposing, not
the exact implementation.
