Serve production static files with Django.
Project description
This is a simple Django middleware utility that allows you to properly serve static assets from production with a WSGI server like Gunicorn.
Django doesn’t recommend the production use of its static file server for a number of reasons. There exists, however, a lovely WSGI application aptly named Static.
It is suitable for the production use of static file serving, unlike Django.
Usage
Configure your static assets in settings.py:
STATIC_ROOT = 'staticfiles' STATIC_URL = '/static/'
Then, update your wsgi.py file to use dj-static:
from django.core.wsgi import get_wsgi_application from dj_static import Cling application = Cling(get_wsgi_application())
