Hi,
It is important to separate the media files from your application file
system in production for security purposes. You cannot trust your users'
input files and therefore you should not be bundled with your application
files. So in production, you should use file storage systems provided by
various providers.
However, in development, we can get around this by adding the media root as
a static file path on the root URL configuration of the project.
To do this we will use the static function from *url.static *and ensure we
are using it *only for development purposes*.
from django.conf import settings
from django.conf.urls.static import static
from django.contrib import admin
from django.urls import path, include
urlpatterns = [ path('admin/', admin.site.urls),
# ... the rest of your URLconf goes here ...
]
if settings.DEBUG:
urlpatterns += static(settings.MEDIA_URL, document_root=settings.
MEDIA_ROOT)
Regards,
Sammy Barasa
