-----
Configure your database in ``settings.py`` from ``DATABASE_URL``
(``default`` is optional)::
(``default`` and ``conn_max_age`` are optional)::
import dj_database_url
DATABASES = {'default': dj_database_url.config(default='postgres://...')}
DATABASES = {'default': dj_database_url.config(default='postgres://...', conn_max_age=600 )}
Parse an arbitrary Database URL::
DATABASES = {'default': dj_database_url.parse('postgres://...')}
DATABASES = {'default': dj_database_url.parse('postgres://...', conn_max_age=600)}
The ``conn_max_age`` attribute is the lifetime of a database connection in seconds
and is available in Django 1.6+. If you do not set a value, it will default to ``0``
which is Django's historical behavior of using a new database connection on each
request. Use ``None`` for unlimited persistent connections.
