Django parameter

[charlsagente]

Hi, I'm trying to integrate green into my django tests. Usually after the second test i use the --keepdb argument from command line to save time. I was wondering how can i pass this argument using green, I tried adding this into a config file but I receive a parsing error

configparser.ParsingError: Source contains parsing errors: '<???>'
    [line  2]: '--keepdb\n'

What is the correct way?

Can you describe how you are launching your tests, exactly? What config files / commands are you using?

I'm trying with

python3 manage.py test --testrunner=green.djangorunner.DjangoRunner

I have sett GREEN_CONFIG={mypath}/green.conf

in green.conf

--keepdb

I also tried with: keepdb=1

Oh, I see. The --keepdb option belongs to django, not green, so pass it to django:

python3 manage.py test --keepdb --testrunner=green.djangorunner.DjangoRunner

I've tryied but i get this

python3 manage.py test --keepdb --testrunner=green.djangorunner.DjangoRunner
usage: manage.py test [-h] [--version] [-v {0,1,2,3}] [--settings SETTINGS]
                      [--pythonpath PYTHONPATH] [--traceback] [--no-color]
                      [--noinput] [--failfast] [--testrunner TESTRUNNER]
                      [--liveserver LIVESERVER] [--green-verbosity VERBOSITY]
                      [test_label [test_label ...]]
manage.py test: error: unrecognized arguments: --keepdb

Hmmm, yep. I see the same thing.

Found it. I won't be able to issue a new release until tonight, but if you would like to hot-patch your local installation of green, here's the diff:

Fixed in 2.11.1 (just released).
