django-preflight 0.1.3

Overview

Django Pre-flight is meant to help with creation of simple pages on which one can quickly gauge health of the system and its external dependencies. It’s a great help for testers before actually delving into the system to be sure that all is configured correctly and any found problems are due to bugs in the code itself and not because of misconfiguration.

This project provides framework for creating set of checks (methods) which determine the health of the system, a way of executing all of them and gathering the results. You can either see the result via the web interface or using Django’s manage.py command.

Additionally the web page displays the versions of various system components, like Python, Django, django-preflight itself. This versions list also have a way of extending it to include project’s specific bits of information.

More information can be found in doc/ directory.
