Hide complexity of sync_overridden_settings_to_arches() context manager #11525

Open jacobtylerwalls opened 1 day ago

jacobtylerwalls commented 1 day ago

Earlier I added a context manager sync_overridden_settings_to_arches() to allow us to use the @override_settings decorator from Django in cases where the functionality under test uses the SystemSettings object instead of the vanilla django.conf.settings object.

This is a little finicky/delicate/verbose.

We could hide this complexity in our own @override_settings decorator, and just remember to import it from arches.test.utils rather than django.test.utils. One and done.

Unrelated but I'd kill to somehow gracefully move from using the arches system settings object to the standard django.conf one
