I have django application and nginx

Time:03-08

I have django application and nginx, from browser, it access to the file /static.

such as

http://example.com/static/file.png

However my application has files under /staticroot.

http://example.com/staticroot/file.png

it shows the image.

So, I set on nginx.

location /static {
    alias /staticroot;
}

However it doesn't appear

My environment is Debug mode.

My settings py is like this,

STATIC_URL = '/static/'

STATICFILES_DIRS = (
    os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'static'),
)

STATIC_ROOT = os.path.join(config("PROJ_PATH"), 'staticroot')

How can I fix this?

CodePudding user response:

In order to serve staticroot content you've rename your STATIC_URL='/staticroot/' & in nginx file

location /staticroot/ {
    alias /home/your_username/project_name;
}

When request come to /staticroot/somefile Nginx will look for directory named as staticroot in file system and it will serve provided file.
So when you define url for you static or media content make sure you've directory with same name.
For more info check Serving Static Content on Nginx docs.

in /etc/nginx/sites-available/you_project set

location /static/ {
    root /home/your_admin_name/your_project_folder_name;
}

in settings.py

STATIC_URL = '/static/'
STATICFILES_DIRS = [
    os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'static'),
]
