Django on Pycharm: Misconfigured with DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE

I am trying to use Pycharm Community Edition to improve my code in my Django application, but I cannot run all my Django code that I would like. I keep getting this track ...

Traceback (most recent call last):

This error seems to be related to django.views.decortors.csrf.csrf_exempt

which I imported into the views.py file. I tried other files and they didn't give me any problems. There is something special about this, but I don't know what.

from django.views.decortors.csrf import csrf_exempt

@csrf_exempt
def handle_hook(request):
    from django.http import HttpResponse
    from django.core.management import call_command
    result = call_command('update_blog', verbosity = 0)
    return HttpResponse(result)

      

        
        
        
      

    

The same problem occurs when I try to run the code in python shell (I use 3.4) and when i import django.http.request as request

. I type handle_hook(request)

and I get the same error.

I was told that I should either define the DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE environment variable or call the settings.configure () before accessing the settings, but I don't know how. I've looked around and I'm not sure what these methods specifically tell about my problem. Any hints?
