Well, I can certainly see Adrian's point in that ticket; Django really isn't meant for handling static files, which is why there are huge warnings all over the explanation of how to get it working with the dev server; using Django to just grab a file from disk and shove it down the pipe is really a horrendous waste of resources given that web servers are highly optimized for that task already. > What if I wanted to limit access to a static file to certain users or > groups in Django? How would I do this otherwise? That feels like it's getting close to implementing a feature just for a "special case" situation, but I'm not 100% certain. -- "May the forces of evil become confused on the way to your house." -- George Carlin --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django developers" group.
