# 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)

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)

class `Info`(msg, hint=None, obj=None, id=None)

class `Warning`(msg, hint=None obj=None, id=None)

class `Error`(msg, hint=None, obj=None, id=None)

class `Critical`(msg, hint=None, obj=None, id=None)

## 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 `CharField`s to have a `max_length` > 255.
- mysql.W002: MySQL Strict Mode is not set for database connection '<alias>'. See also Setting sql_mode.

### Model fields

- fields.E901: `CommaSeparatedIntegerField` is removed except for support in historical migrations.

#### File fields

- fields.E200: `unique` is not a valid argument for a `FileField`. This check is removed in Django 1.11.
- fields.E201: `primary_key` is not a valid argument for a `FileField`.
- fields.E202: `FileField`’s `upload_to` argument must be a relative path, not an absolute path.

### 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.

#### `AdminSite`

The following checks are performed on the default `AdminSite`:

- admin.E401: `django.contrib.contenttypes` must be in `INSTALLED_APPS` in order to use the admin application.
- admin.E402: `django.contrib.auth.context_processors.auth` must be in `TEMPLATES` in order to use the admin application.

### `auth`

- auth.E001: `REQUIRED_FIELDS` must be a list or tuple.
- auth.E002: The field named as the `USERNAME_FIELD` for a custom user model must not be included in `REQUIRED_FIELDS`.
- auth.E003: `<field>` must be unique because it is named as the `USERNAME_FIELD`.
- auth.W004: `<field>` is named as the `USERNAME_FIELD`, but it is not unique.
- auth.E005: The permission codenamed `<codename>` clashes with a builtin permission for model `<model>`.
- auth.E006: The permission codenamed `<codename>` is duplicated for model `<model>`.
- auth.E007: The `verbose_name` of model `<model>` must be at most 244 characters for its builtin permission names to be at most 255 characters.
- auth.E008: The permission named `<name>` of model `<model>` is longer than 255 characters.
- auth.C009: `<User model>.is_anonymous` must be an attribute or property rather than a method. Ignoring this is a security issue as anonymous users will be treated as authenticated!
- auth.C010: `<User model>.is_authenticated` must be an attribute or property rather than a method. Ignoring this is a security issue as anonymous users will be treated as authenticated!

### `contenttypes`

The following checks are performed when a model contains a `GenericForeignKey` or `GenericRelation`:

- contenttypes.E001: The `GenericForeignKey` object ID references the nonexistent field `<field>`.
- contenttypes.E002: The `GenericForeignKey` content type references the nonexistent field `<field>`.
- contenttypes.E003: `<field>` is not a `ForeignKey`.
- contenttypes.E004: `<field>` is not a `ForeignKey` to `contenttypes.ContentType`.
- contenttypes.E005: Model names must be at most 100 characters.

### `postgres`

The following checks are performed on `django.contrib.postgres` model fields:

- postgres.E001: Base field for array has errors: ...
- postgres.E002: Base field for array cannot be a related field.
- postgres.E003: `<field>` default should be a callable instead of an instance so that it's not shared between all field instances.

### `sites`

The following checks are performed on any model using a `CurrentSiteManager`:

- sites.E001: `CurrentSiteManager` could not find a field named `<field name>`.
- sites.E002: `CurrentSiteManager` cannot use `<field>` as it is not a foreign key or a many-to-many field.

### `staticfiles`

The following checks verify that `django.contrib.staticfiles` is correctly configured:

- staticfiles.E001: The `STATICFILES_DIRS` setting is not a tuple or list.
- staticfiles.E002: The `STATICFILES_DIRS` setting should not contain the `STATIC_ROOT` setting.
