How to configure django-compressor and django-staticfiles with Amazon's S3?

问题

I'm trying to setup django-compressor and django-staticfiles so that the compressed CSS/Javascript and images are served from Amazon's S3.

I've managed to setup staticfiles using S3 as the backend so it's collectstatic command sends the files to S3 instead of STATIC_ROOT.

However when trying to add django-compressor to the mix is where it all seems to fall apart for me. Following the documentation on setting up remote storages I've created a subclass of the storage backend, boto, so I copied the example to storage.py. Once I start using this cached backend the files are copied into static_media and not S3. After the first page load the CACHE folder appears on S3 and in the static_media folder.

Setting STATICFILES_STORAGE and COMPRESS_STORAGE back to boto's normal S3 class (storages.backends.s3boto.S3BotoStorage) results in the static assets being collected into the S3 bucket and no static_media folder. However trying to reload the page throws the error:

Caught NotImplementedError while rendering: This backend doesn't support absolute paths.

highlighting {% compress css %} as the tag and compressor/base.py as the origin.

The s3/staticfiles/compressor section of my settings.py:

DEFAULT_FILE_STORAGE = 'storages.backends.s3boto.S3BotoStorage'
AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID = 'key'
AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY ='secret'
AWS_STORAGE_BUCKET_NAME = 'my-bucket'
S3_URL = 'http://my-bucket.s3.amazonaws.com/'

MEDIA_ROOT = 'client_media'
MEDIA_URL = '/media/'
STATIC_ROOT = 'static_media'
STATIC_URL = S3_URL
ADMIN_MEDIA_PREFIX = S3_URL + 'admin/'
STATICFILES_DIRS = (
    join(DIRNAME, 'static'),
)
STATICFILES_FINDERS = (
    'django.contrib.staticfiles.finders.FileSystemFinder',
    'django.contrib.staticfiles.finders.AppDirectoriesFinder',
    'compressor.finders.CompressorFinder',
)

COMPRESS_ENABLED = True
COMPRESS_URL = S3_URL
COMPRESS_ROOT = STATIC_ROOT
COMPRESS_STORAGE = 'storage.CachedS3BotoStorage'
STATICFILES_STORAGE = COMPRESS_STORAGE

So where am I going wrong? Have I mis-configured something when using the CachedS3BotoStorage custom storage maybe?

回答1:

Your settings look correct. You should keep both STATICFILES_STORAGE and COMPRESS_STORAGE set to storage.CachedS3BotoStorage though and not switch back to storages.backends.s3boto.S3BotoStorage.

According to this django-compressor issue, the problem is with the way django-staticfiles saves during the collectstatic process (using shutil.copy2). This issue has been corrected in the newer version of django-staticfiles, which can be used instead of the one that ships with Django 1.3.

pip install django-staticfiles==dev

And in your settings.py, switch to the updated version:

STATICFILES_FINDERS = (
    #"django.contrib.staticfiles.finders.FileSystemFinder",
    #"django.contrib.staticfiles.finders.AppDirectoriesFinder",
    "staticfiles.finders.FileSystemFinder",
    "staticfiles.finders.AppDirectoriesFinder",
    "compressor.finders.CompressorFinder",
)

INSTALLED_APPS = (
    'django.contrib.auth',
    'django.contrib.contenttypes',
    'django.contrib.sessions',
    #'django.contrib.staticfiles',
    'staticfiles',
    #...
)

After running python manage.py collectstatic again, both the CACHE directory from django-compressor and the collected staticfiles files should show up on S3.

Using django_compressor==1.2 worked for me. I am not sure why you need to install django-staticfiles however all the versions of django_compressor except 1.2 has that issue.

After plenty of days of hard work and research I was finally able to do this and I decided to write a detailed guide about it, including how to also serve them zipped with gzip.

Basically you need to do a few things:

Use AWS_IS_GZIPPED = True
If your S3 is outside of US. You need to create a custom S3Connection class where you override the DefaultHost variable to your S3 url. Example s3-eu-west-1.amazonaws.com
If you're using a dotted bucket name, example subdomain.domain.tld. You need to set AWS_S3_CALLING_FORMAT = 'boto.s3.connection.OrdinaryCallingFormat'
You have to set non_gzipped_file_content = content.file in your CachedS3BotoStorage

This is the CachedS3BotoStorage class you need:

class CachedS3BotoStorage(S3BotoStorage):
    """
    S3 storage backend that saves the files locally, too.
    """
    connection_class = EUConnection
    location = settings.STATICFILES_LOCATION
    def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
        super(CachedS3BotoStorage, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs)
        self.local_storage = get_storage_class(
            "compressor.storage.CompressorFileStorage")()

def save(self, name, content):
    non_gzipped_file_content = content.file
    name = super(CachedS3BotoStorage, self).save(name, content)
    content.file = non_gzipped_file_content
    self.local_storage._save(name, content)
    return name

Note that EUConnection is a custom class where I set DefaultHost to my S3 location. Check the much longer and detailed guide for complete custom storages and settings.py
