Generating Secret Keys

OpenSSL

openssl rand -base64 32

Using Django

shell_secret_key.sh

python -c 'from django.core.management.utils import get_random_secret_key; print(get_random_secret_key())'

From the Django Shell

django_shell_key.sh

python manage.py shell
from django.core.management.utils import get_random_secret_key
print(get_random_secret_key())

Base-64 Encoded Django Secret Key

If you need a Base64 encoded version like for Kubernetes or Knative, use the following commands:

base_64_secret_key.sh

export SECRET_KEY=$(python -c "from django.core.management.utils import get_random_secret_key;print(get_random_secret_key())")
echo "Secret key is: $SECRET_KEY"
export SECRET_KEY_ENCODED=$(echo "$SECRET_KEY" | base64)
echo "Base64 Encoded Secret key is: $SECRET_KEY_ENCODED"
