Request History Panel for Django Debug Toolbar

Adds a request history panel to Django Debug Toolbar for viewing stats for different requests (with the option for ajax support).

Install

pip install django-debug-toolbar-request-history

or for development version:

pip install git+https://github.com/djsutho/django-debug-toolbar-request-history.git

Add the panel to DEBUG_TOOLBAR_PANELS (see the config section for more details).

Usage

Click on the "Request History" panel in the toolbar to load the available requests. Click on the request you are interested in (on the "Time" or "Path" part of the request) to load the toolbar for that request.

Note: currently requests do not survive server reload, therefore, when using the dev server old requests will not be available after a code change is loaded.

Config (in settings.py)

To DEBUG_TOOLBAR_PANELS add 'ddt_request_history.panels.request_history.RequestHistoryPanel' e.g.:

DEBUG_TOOLBAR_PANELS = [
    'ddt_request_history.panels.request_history.RequestHistoryPanel',  # Here it is 
    'debug_toolbar.panels.versions.VersionsPanel',
    'debug_toolbar.panels.timer.TimerPanel',
    'debug_toolbar.panels.settings.SettingsPanel',
    'debug_toolbar.panels.headers.HeadersPanel',
    'debug_toolbar.panels.request.RequestPanel',
    'debug_toolbar.panels.sql.SQLPanel',
    'debug_toolbar.panels.templates.TemplatesPanel',
    'debug_toolbar.panels.staticfiles.StaticFilesPanel',
    'debug_toolbar.panels.cache.CachePanel',
    'debug_toolbar.panels.signals.SignalsPanel',
    'debug_toolbar.panels.logging.LoggingPanel',
    'debug_toolbar.panels.redirects.RedirectsPanel',
    'debug_toolbar.panels.profiling.ProfilingPanel',
]

For vesions of the debug toolbar less than 1.8 you can record ajax requests by adding SHOW_TOOLBAR_CALLBACK to DEBUG_TOOLBAR_CONFIG e.g.:

DEBUG_TOOLBAR_CONFIG = {
    # only requred for debug_toolbar versions below 1.8
    'SHOW_TOOLBAR_CALLBACK': 'ddt_request_history.panels.request_history.allow_ajax',
}

To change the number of stored requests add RESULTS_STORE_SIZE to DEBUG_TOOLBAR_CONFIG e.g.:

DEBUG_TOOLBAR_CONFIG = {
    'RESULTS_STORE_SIZE': 100,
}

TODO

• Clean-up
• Change the storage to survive server reloads (maybe use cache or session).
