Default static path for Django ImageField

Project description

Default static file path for Django ImageField

Setup

  • install it via pip install django-default-imagefield

  • add it to your settings and it auto-registers itself

    settings.INSTALLED_APPS = [
       ...
       'django_fields',
       ...
    ]

Usage

  • add field to your model class

    from django_fields import DefaultStaticImageField
    
    class Post(models.Model):
      photo = DefaultStaticImageField(blank=True)
  • default path is django_fields/no_image.png and is included in the package. you can change it via settings.py

    # settings.py
    DEFAULT_IMAGE_PATH = 'images/custom_no_image.png'
  • or add field attribute default_image_path

    class Post(models.Model):
      photo = DefaultStaticImageField(blank=True, default_image_path='images/blank.png')
  • if there is no file in the default_image_path of the field or DEFAULT_IMAGE_PATH in settings.py, use the default image built into the package.

  • if deploying to a production environment, you must run the ./manage.py collectstatic command to copy the image files included in the package to the static file serving path.
