swingtime_settings — Configuration Settings

Settings

Swingtime has it’s settings module (conf/swingtime_settings.py) that simulates how each Django project’s setting.py file functions. You can overwrite any or all of the configuration parameters described in swingtime_settings by creating a file in your own project and referencing that file in your project settings using the name SWINGTIME_SETTINGS_MODULE.

For example, from the demo’s configuration:

SWINGTIME_SETTINGS_MODULE = 'demo.swingtime_settings'

swingtime_settings.TIMESLOT_TIME_FORMAT

A “strftime” string for formatting start and end time selectors in forms. The default format is:

'%I:%M %p'

swingtime_settings.TIMESLOT_INTERVAL

Used for creating start and end time form selectors as well as time slot grids. Value should be datetime.timedelta value representing the incremental differences between temporal options. The default is:

``datetime.timedelta(minutes=15)``

swingtime_settings.TIMESLOT_START_TIME

``datetime.time(9)``

swingtime_settings.TIMESLOT_END_TIME_DURATION

Default:

``datetime.timedelta(hours=+8)``
