I've been hacking around and googling for a little while now and can't seem to track down a solution to what should be a pretty straight forward problem.
The situation ============ I'm trying to setup a nice workflow between my development environment and my production environment. I would like to be able to move changes from development to production with a minimum of hassle. Production setup ============= I'm serving all the dynamic pages using Apache/mod_python. All static content (images, scripts, styles, etc.) are served from a _different_ subdomain running lighttpd. This setup seems to work well and is in line with what's recommended in the documentation (with the exception of the different subdomain). domain.tld => Django running on Apache/mod_python sub.domain.tld => static content served from lighttpd Development setup =============== I've setup development much the same way. The difference here is the server software. My development machine is Mac and my production server is running Ubuntu. The development environment is running straight from IP. So I've got: ip:8000 => Django running on manage.py ip:80 => static content served from Personal Web Sharing (basically Apache) Django configuration ================ I have 2 settings.py files (settings.py.development & settings.py.production). One for development and one for production. Each has the settings for the servers in the specific environment. Right now I simply copy whichever settings.py.* file to settings.py for the environment I'm working in at the time. Problem ======= Templates! I'd like to refer to my local static files when running in my development environment. How do I setup the templates to use the proper static files. Right now my templates include lines like: <link rel="stylesheet" href="http://sub.domain.tld/styles/base.css"; type="text/css" media="screen" /> I'm obviously missing something basic. I'm 99% sure I should be able to say something like: <link rel="stylesheet" href="http:// {{ static_content_domain_constant }}/styles/base.css" type="text/css" media="screen" /> I have looked around for a solution but everything seems to point to the Site object (which requires a different entry in the database which I want to avoid, development should be a near exact mirror of production) or passing a variable through a view (these changes should be global). I'm new so please be gentle.
