Get project name

[Alessandro Ronchi]

Is there any way to get the project name that's running in the code?

Now I use a manual setting: PROJECT_NAME = "ambiente"
but it should be useful to avoid that, because I'm working on an
external app and every new unuseful configuration simplify my life a
lot.

Alessandro,

In settings.py:

import os.path
PROJECT_ROOT = os.path.realpath(os.path.dirname(__file__))
PROJECT_NAME = os.path.basename(PROJECT_ROOT)

Then, in modules where you need it:

from django.conf import settings

PROJECT_NAME = settings.PROJECT_NAME
