Won't update environ key if it already set

[yzdann]

imagine a case when we need to update some of the production settings in production.py base on base.py.

from .base import *

environ.Env.read_env(env_file="/etc/<app>/.env")

DATABASES = {
    # read os.environ['DATABASE_URL'] and raises ImproperlyConfigured exception if not found
    "default": env.db(),
}

CELERY_BROKER_URL = env("REDIS_URL")
CELERY_RESULT_BACKEND = env("REDIS_URL")
CACHEOPS_REDIS = env("CACHE_URL")

...

since code used setdefault it will ignore to update that in django-environ/environ/environ.py

# line 654
cls.ENVIRON.setdefault(key, str(val))

any update on a fix for this issue ?

[sdementen]

for info, a quick fix can be to add
env.ENVIRON.setdefault = env.ENVIRON.__setitem__
just after declaring the env variable (with environ.Env())

This is resolved in develop branch. Thank you for the report, and for helping us make django-environ better. And I am sorry about the delay.
