title: The best way to store constants in Django
body: <p>I have a Django application and use GitHub for CI. 
  Now I run into the problem that I have a merge conflict with constants import every time I merge. Another developers are importing constants vary often, so do I.
  Directories tree looks like that:</p>
  
  <pre><code>main_app &gt; 
  ...main_app 
  ...api 
  ...aws_lambda 
  ...billing 
  ...utils 
  ...and many other directories
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Each sub-application has its own file constants.py. Constants import looks like that:</p>
  
  <pre><code>from utils.constants import const1, const2, const3, const4 
  from billing.constants import const5, const6
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>How I need to rewrite those imports to decrease merge conflicts in future?
  Is there a better way than the one below?</p>
  
  <pre><code>import utils.constants as utils_const
  import billing.constants as billing_const
  ...
  var = utils_const.const1
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>What is the best practice to store constants in Django app?</p>
