System check framework

The system check framework is a set of static checks for validating Django projects. It detects common problems and provides hints for how to fix them. The framework is extensible so you can easily add your own checks.

For details on how to add your own checks and integrate them with Django’s system checks, see the System check topic guide.

API reference

CheckMessage

class CheckMessage(level, msg, hint=None, obj=None, id=None)[source]

The warnings and errors raised by system checks must be instances of CheckMessage. An instance encapsulates a single reportable error or warning. It also provides context and hints applicable to the message, and a unique identifier that is used for filtering purposes.

Constructor arguments are:

level

The severity of the message. Use one of the predefined values: DEBUG, INFO, WARNING, ERROR, CRITICAL. If the level is greater or equal to ERROR, then Django will prevent management commands from executing. Messages with level lower than ERROR (i.e. warnings) are reported to the console, but can be silenced.

msg

A short (less than 80 characters) string describing the problem. The string should not contain newlines.

hint

A single-line string providing a hint for fixing the problem. If no hint can be provided, or the hint is self-evident from the error message, the hint can be omitted, or a value of None can be used.

obj

Optional. An object providing context for the message (for example, the model where the problem was discovered). The object should be a model, field, or manager or any other object that defines a __str__() method. The method is used while reporting all messages and its result precedes the message.

id

Optional string. A unique identifier for the issue. Identifiers should follow the pattern applabel.X001, where X is one of the letters CEWID, indicating the message severity (C for criticals, E for errors and so). The number can be allocated by the application, but should be unique within that application.

There are subclasses to make creating messages with common levels easier. When using them you can omit the level argument because it is implied by the class name.

class Debug(msg, hint=None, obj=None, id=None)[source]

class Info(msg, hint=None, obj=None, id=None)[source]

class Warning(msg, hint=None obj=None, id=None)[source]

class Error(msg, hint=None, obj=None, id=None)[source]

class Critical(msg, hint=None, obj=None, id=None)[source]

Builtin tags

Django’s system checks are organized using the following tags:

• admin: Checks of any admin site declarations.
• caches: Checks cache related configuration.
• compatibility: Flags potential problems with version upgrades.
• database: Checks database-related configuration issues. Database checks are not run by default because they do more than static code analysis as regular checks do. They are only run by the migrate command or if you specify the database tag when calling the check command.
• models: Checks of model, field, and manager definitions.
• security: Checks security related configuration.
• signals: Checks on signal declarations and handler registrations.
• staticfiles: Checks django.contrib.staticfiles configuration.
• templates: Checks template related configuration.
• urls: Checks URL configuration.

Some checks may be registered with multiple tags.

Core system checks

Backwards compatibility

Compatibility checks warn of potential problems that might occur after upgrading Django.

• 2_0.W001: Your URL pattern <pattern> has a route that contains (?P<, begins with a ^, or ends with a $. This was likely an oversight when migrating from url() to path().

Caches

The following checks verify that your CACHES setting is correctly configured:

• caches.E001: You must define a 'default' cache in your CACHES setting.

Database

MySQL

If you’re using MySQL, the following checks will be performed:

• mysql.E001: MySQL does not allow unique CharFields to have a max_length > 255.

Security

The security checks do not make your site secure. They do not audit code, do intrusion detection, or do anything particularly complex. Rather, they help perform an automated, low-hanging-fruit checklist. They help you remember the simple things that improve your site’s security.

Some of these checks may not be appropriate for your particular deployment configuration. For instance, if you do your HTTP to HTTPS redirection in a load balancer, it’d be irritating to be constantly warned about not having enabled SECURE_SSL_REDIRECT. Use SILENCED_SYSTEM_CHECKS to silence unneeded checks.

The following checks are run if you use the check --deploy option:

• security.W001: You do not have django.middleware.security.SecurityMiddleware in your MIDDLEWARE so the SECURE_HSTS_SECONDS, SECURE_CONTENT_TYPE_NOSNIFF, SECURE_BROWSER_XSS_FILTER, and SECURE_SSL_REDIRECT settings will have no effect.
• security.W002: You do not have django.middleware.clickjacking.XFrameOptionsMiddleware in your MIDDLEWARE, so your pages will not be served with an 'x-frame-options' header. Unless there is a good reason for your site to be served in a frame, you should consider enabling this header to help prevent clickjacking attacks.
• security.W003: You don’t appear to be using Django’s built-in cross-site request forgery protection via the middleware (django.middleware.csrf.CsrfViewMiddleware is not in your MIDDLEWARE). Enabling the middleware is the safest approach to ensure you don’t leave any holes.
• security.W004: You have not set a value for the SECURE_HSTS_SECONDS setting. If your entire site is served only over SSL, you may want to consider setting a value and enabling HTTP Strict Transport Security. Be sure to read the documentation first; enabling HSTS carelessly can cause serious, irreversible problems.
• security.W005: You have not set the SECURE_HSTS_INCLUDE_SUBDOMAINS setting to True. Without this, your site is potentially vulnerable to attack via an insecure connection to a subdomain. Only set this to True if you are certain that all subdomains of your domain should be served exclusively via SSL.
• security.W006: Your SECURE_CONTENT_TYPE_NOSNIFF setting is not set to True, so your pages will not be served with an 'x-content-type-options: nosniff' header. You should consider enabling this header to prevent the browser from identifying content types incorrectly.
• security.W007: Your SECURE_BROWSER_XSS_FILTER setting is not set to True, so your pages will not be served with an 'x-xss-protection: 1; mode=block' header. You should consider enabling this header to activate the browser’s XSS filtering and help prevent XSS attacks.
• security.W008: Your SECURE_SSL_REDIRECT setting is not set to True. Unless your site should be available over both SSL and non-SSL connections, you may want to either set this setting to True or configure a load balancer or reverse-proxy server to redirect all connections to HTTPS.
• security.W009: Your SECRET_KEY has less than 50 characters or less than 5 unique characters. Please generate a long and random SECRET_KEY, otherwise many of Django’s security-critical features will be vulnerable to attack.
• security.W010: You have django.contrib.sessions in your INSTALLED_APPS but you have not set SESSION_COOKIE_SECURE to True. Using a secure-only session cookie makes it more difficult for network traffic sniffers to hijack user sessions.
• security.W011: You have django.contrib.sessions.middleware.SessionMiddleware in your MIDDLEWARE, but you have not set SESSION_COOKIE_SECURE to True. Using a secure-only session cookie makes it more difficult for network traffic sniffers to hijack user sessions.
• security.W012: SESSION_COOKIE_SECURE is not set to True. Using a secure-only session cookie makes it more difficult for network traffic sniffers to hijack user sessions.
• security.W013: You have django.contrib.sessions in your INSTALLED_APPS, but you have not set SESSION_COOKIE_HTTPONLY to True. Using an HttpOnly session cookie makes it more difficult for cross-site scripting attacks to hijack user sessions.
• security.W014: You have django.contrib.sessions.middleware.SessionMiddleware in your MIDDLEWARE, but you have not set SESSION_COOKIE_HTTPONLY to True. Using an HttpOnly session cookie makes it more difficult for cross-site scripting attacks to hijack user sessions.
• security.W015: SESSION_COOKIE_HTTPONLY is not set to True. Using an HttpOnly session cookie makes it more difficult for cross-site scripting attacks to hijack user sessions.
• security.W016: CSRF_COOKIE_SECURE is not set to True. Using a secure-only CSRF cookie makes it more difficult for network traffic sniffers to steal the CSRF token.
• security.W017: CSRF_COOKIE_HTTPONLY is not set to True. Using an HttpOnly CSRF cookie makes it more difficult for cross-site scripting attacks to steal the CSRF token. This check is removed in Django 1.11 as the CSRF_COOKIE_HTTPONLY setting offers no pratical benefit.
• security.W018: You should not have DEBUG set to True in deployment.
• security.W019: You have django.middleware.clickjacking.XFrameOptionsMiddleware in your MIDDLEWARE, but X_FRAME_OPTIONS is not set to 'DENY'. The default is 'SAMEORIGIN', but unless there is a good reason for your site to serve other parts of itself in a frame, you should change it to 'DENY'.
• security.W020: ALLOWED_HOSTS must not be empty in deployment.
• security.W021: You have not set the SECURE_HSTS_PRELOAD setting to True. Without this, your site cannot be submitted to the browser preload list.

Signals

• signals.E001: <handler> was connected to the <signal> signal with a lazy reference to the sender <app label>.<model>, but app <app label> isn’t installed or doesn’t provide model <model>.

Templates

The following checks verify that your TEMPLATES setting is correctly configured:

• templates.E001: You have 'APP_DIRS': True in your TEMPLATES but also specify 'loaders' in OPTIONS. Either remove APP_DIRS or remove the 'loaders' option.
• templates.E002: string_if_invalid in TEMPLATES OPTIONS must be a string but got: {value} ({type}).

URLs

The following checks are performed on your URL configuration:

• urls.W001: Your URL pattern <pattern> uses include() with a route ending with a $. Remove the dollar from the route to avoid problems including URLs.
• urls.W002: Your URL pattern <pattern> has a route beginning with a /. Remove this slash as it is unnecessary. If this pattern is targeted in an include(), ensure the include() pattern has a trailing /.
• urls.W003: Your URL pattern <pattern> has a name including a :. Remove the colon, to avoid ambiguous namespace references.
• urls.E004: Your URL pattern <pattern> is invalid. Ensure that urlpatterns is a list of path() and/or re_path() instances.
• urls.W005: URL namespace <namespace> isn’t unique. You may not be able to reverse all URLs in this namespace.
• urls.E006: The MEDIA_URL/ STATIC_URL setting must end with a slash.
