Django was not configured. For more information run pylint --load-plugins=pylint_django --help-msg=django-not-configured
Add the --django-settings-module argument the VS Code settings:
{
"python.linting.pylintArgs": [
[...]
"--django-settings-module=<mainapp>.settings",
]
}
Change <mainapp> to be your main app directory. For example, if your settings.py was in sweetstuff/settings.py then the argument value would be sweetstuff.settings. This is the same format as you would import the settings module from inside a Python module or the Django shell.
