[FIXED] How to pass a variable from settings.py to a view?

Issue

I'm getting the project path in my Django app in settings.py using:

PROJECT_PATH = os.path.realpath(os.path.dirname(__file__))

I would like to use the PROJECT_PATH value in other views, such as for locating the path to files in my static path. How can I make this into an accessible variable?

Solution

Use from django.conf import settings but mind that settings is not a module. The documentation clearly explains that and your use case.
