I am using PyCharm IDE and when I run any file.py I get this error:

..raise ImportError("Settings cannot be imported, because environment variable %s is undefined." % ENVIRONMENT_VARIABLE) ImportError: Settings cannot be imported, because environment variable DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE is undefined.

How to configure DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE environment variable in PyCharm?

python django environment-variables pycharm
