POCorrect way to serve static user-uploaded files for django-adminfiles
text
Body
copied!<p>I am trying to add django-adminfiles to one of my django projects (a zinnia blog).<br> I am using Django 1.3 with the following configuration :</p> <pre><code># setttings.py STATIC_URL = '/static/' STATIC_ROOT = os.path.join(current_dir, 'static_collected') STATICFILES_DIRS = ( '/path/to/myproject/src/django-adminfiles/adminfiles/media', ...) # urls.py urlpatterns += staticfiles_urlpatterns() urlpatterns += patterns('', url(r'^adminfiles/(?P<path>.*)$', 'django.views.static.serve', {'document_root': os.path.join(parent_dir, 'adminfiles')}),) </code></pre> <p>I then run <code>bin/manage collecstatic</code> to collect static files (I am using buildout with djangorecipe).<br> I can then upload files using the admin interface but thumbnails neither appear in the admin interface nor in the public website and I have 404 errors in django's output :</p> <pre><code># If I go to the admin interface at /admin/zinnia/entry/2/ [21/Sep/2011 09:39:16] "GET /adminfiles/all/adminfiles/fluxboxwall_jpg_144x150_q85.jpg HTTP/1.1" 404 1886 [21/Sep/2011 09:39:16] "GET /adminfiles/all/adminfiles/DD_jpg_144x150_q85.jpg HTTP/1.1" 404 1859 # If I visit my public located at /blog [21/Sep/2011 09:36:02] "GET /blog/adminfiles/fluxboxwall.jpg HTTP/1.1" 404 6758 # This file can be accessed through /adminfiles/fluxwall.jpg [21/Sep/2011 09:36:02] "GET /blog/adminfiles/DD.jpg HTTP/1.1" 404 6731 # This file can be accessed through /adminfiles/DD.jpg </code></pre> <p>I can make django-adminfiles work by adding slashes in its templates :</p> <p><a href="https://github.com/carljm/django-adminfiles/blob/master/adminfiles/templates/adminfiles/uploader/base.html#L37" rel="nofollow">templates/adminfiles/uploader.html, line 37</a>, for the thumbnails in the admin interface<br> <code><li class="item {{f.content_type}} {{f.sub_type}}" {% if f.is_image %}style="background-image:url(</code><strong>/</strong><code>{% thumbnail f.upload 144x150 %});"{% else %}{% if f.mime_image %}style="background-image:url({{ f.mime_image }});"{% endif %}{% endif %}></code></p> <p><a href="https://github.com/carljm/django-adminfiles/blob/master/adminfiles/templates/adminfiles/render/image/default.html#L2" rel="nofollow">templates/adminfiles/default.html, line 2</a>, to have my pictures displayed in my public blog<br> <code><img src="</code><strong>/</strong><code>{{ upload.upload.url }}" width="{{ upload.width }}" height="{{ upload.height }}" class="{{ options.class }}" alt="{% if options.alt %}{{ options.alt }}{% else %}{{ upload.title }}{% endif %}" /></code></p> <p>However, I think I shouldn't have to hack templates to make django-adminfiles work. I have a feeling that something is wrong in my django configuration but I don't know what.</p>
