[Answer]-Django Database Improperly Configured when function called outside of Django

Seems you have not specified anything in your setting.py file’s DATABASES dictionary.Specify the following to connect to databse successfully(as per docs),

1) ENGINE — Either ‘django.db.backends.postgresql_psycopg2’, ‘django.db.backends.mysql’, ‘django.db.backends.sqlite3’ or ‘django.db.backends.oracle’. Other backends are also available.

2) NAME — The name of your database. If you’re using SQLite, the database will be a file on your computer; in that case, NAME should be the full absolute path, including filename, of that file. If the file doesn’t exist, it will automatically be created when you synchronize the database for the first time (see below).

3) USER — Your database username (not used for SQLite).

4) PASSWORD — Your database password (not used for SQLite).

5) HOST — The host your database is on. Leave this as an empty string if your database server is on the same physical machine (not used for SQLite).
