ALLOWED_HOSTS

Do not include schemes ("http" or "https") with this setting.

CSRF_TRUSTED_ORIGINS

Default: None

If Baby Buddy is behind a proxy, you may need add all possible origins to this setting for form submission to work correctly. Separate multiple origins with commas.

Each entry must contain both the scheme (http, https) and fully-qualified domain name.

Example value

https://baby.example.test,http://baby.example2.test,http://babybudy

SECRET_KEY

Default: None

A random, unique string must be set as the "secret key" before Baby Buddy can be deployed and run.

See also Django's documentation on the SECRET_KEY setting.

SECURE_PROXY_SSL_HEADER

Default: None

If Baby Buddy is behind a proxy, you may need to set this to True in order to trust the X-Forwarded-Proto header that comes from your proxy, and any time its value is "https". This guarantees the request is secure (i.e., it originally came in via HTTPS).
