Use Database URLs in your Django Application

This simple Django utility allows you to utilize the 12factor inspired DATABASE_URL environment variable to configure your Django application. The dj_database_url.config method returns a Django database connection dictionary, populated with all the data specified in your URL. There is also a conn_max_age argument to easily enable Django's connection pool. If you'd rather not use an environment variable, you can pass a URL in directly instead to dj_database_url.parse. Supported Databases: Support currently exists for PostgreSQL, PostGIS, MySQL, MySQL (GIS), Oracle, Oracle (GIS), and SQLite.
