Hi chacs66,
If you do you setup right you don't have to worry about it. Here is
an example. Suppose you have an app called myapp and in the myapp
folder you have a urls.py that contains this:
urlpatterns += patterns(
'',
(r'^static_media/(?P<path>.*)$', 'django.views.static.serve',
{'document_root':
os.path.join(os.path.dirname(__file__),'static_media')}),
)
So if you are running with the development server, any urls inside /
myapp/static_media will be handled.
Now if for production you are using Apache with mod_python, just do
this in your Apache settings file:
# Inside this directory there is a static_media folder
DocumentRoot /absolute/path/to/myproject/myapp
SetHandler mod_python
PythonPath "['/absolute/path/to','/absolute/path/to/myproject'] +
sys.path"
PythonHandler django.core.handlers.modpython
SetEnv DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE myproject.settings
# TODO - Turn off for production
PythonDebug On
# Let Apache serve our application's static media files
<Location "/static_media/">
SetHandler None
</Location>
Apache will intercept the /myapp/static_media/... URLs and mod_python
will never see them, so django.views.static.serve will never be
invoked.
