django-memcached

This is a very simple reusable app which does one thing: shows you statistics about your currently running memcached instances. There are no database models and not much configuration.

Installing django-memcached

1. Either download the tarball and run python setup.py install, or simply use easy install or pip like so easy_install django-memcached.

2. Add django_memcached to your INSTALLED_APPS setting::

   INSTALLED_APPS = (
       # ...
       'django_memcached',
   )
   

3. Add the urls to your url configuration::

   urlpatterns = patterns('',
       # ...
       (r'^cache/', include('django_memcached.urls')),
   )
   

4. If you want to restrict these urls to only staff members, just add this setting to your settings file::

   DJANGO_MEMCACHED_REQUIRE_STAFF = True
   

That's it. Hopefully this app gives you a little insight into how your memcached servers are being utilized.
