Separate settings on Heroku and in the repository

Question

Django

In general, I keep a djnago project on github, and I want to run a test version on Heroku, but the fact is that you can upload it to heroku only through git, in fact, it is also proposed to commit the settings too.

I don't want to keep the settings in a common repository, can anyone know how to keep separate settings for heroku without creating a separate repository?

Answer 1

Env vars .
Use them like regular env vars in python -

import os

CONFIG_PARAM_A = os.environ['CONFIG_PARAM_A']
