Planning to host the client side of our application in production from a proxy to an S3 site from Nginx.
The problem is we'd like to mimic this behavior by serving / in Django runserver using a static directory url() entry. I've read over https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.4/howto/static-files/#serving-other-directories but I can't seem to make Django route / to my client directory. Idea is I have a project directory* /client *which contains index.html along with all the other files for site, and when I hit http://127.0.0.1:8000/ I want to serve up *<projectdirectory>/client/index.html.* Not sure the following will work because I don't think you can't have a STATIC_URL = '/', right? from django.contrib.staticfiles.urls import staticfiles_urlpatterns urlpatterns += staticfiles_urlpatterns() This one seems to make more sense, but I am not clear on what URL pattern could pull this off.. if settings.DEBUG: urlpatterns += patterns('', url(r'^(?P<path>.*)$', 'django.views.static.serve', {'document_root': '/client',}), ) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
