The unseen, silent tribute to those we have lost.

django-clacks contains boilerplate code for working with the nonstandard HTTP header X-Clacks-Overhead.

You can find out more about the X-Clacks-Overhead header here: https://xclacksoverhead.org/home/about

Django Clacks is on PyPI. Install it with pip install django-clacks or add it with your dependency manager.

Add clacks.middleware.ClacksMiddleware to your MIDDLEWARE setting:

MIDDLEWARE = [
    # ...
    "clacks.middleware.ClacksMiddleware",
    # ...
]

By default, all responses will now have a header X-Clacks-Overhead, with the content GNU Terry Pratchett.
You can modify the names used with the CLACKS_NAMES setting. The following setting:

CLACKS_NAMES = [
    "Terry Pratchett",
    "Joe Armstrong",
]

Will result in an X-Clacks-Overhead header containing GNU Terry Pratchett, Joe Armstrong.
