django won't load staticfiles from statifiles_dirs

问题

My style.css is placed in appname/static/appname/.

My settings.py has this code:

STATIC_URL = '/static/'
STATICFILES_DIRS = (
    os.path.join(BASE_DIR, "static/"),
    )

And in my base.html I load it like this:

{% load static %}
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="{% static 'appname/style.css' %}">

But the styles are not loading. If I remove STATICFILES_DIRS and change STATIC_URL = '/static/' to STATIC_URL = '/static/appname/', it works perfectly, but I guess it's not the best practice for the case I'll add any other app to the project later. What I might be doing wrong?

回答1:

Just change one thing,

STATICFILES_DIRS = (
os.path.join(BASE_DIR, "static"),
)

It will search in static folder inside your app. Also if you want to add a specific directory,

STATICFILES_DIRS = (
os.path.join(BASE_DIR, "static"), '/your specific directory/',
)

From here you can directly add the particular file name, and djnago will search in that specific directory.

Remove "appname" in {% static 'appname/style.css' %}, you must not place it there because python knows automatically in which application the file is, it get the application name from the request

By default django picks static directory from app's directory. So, if your static directory is inside app directory there is no need to specify STATICFILES_DIRS. Now /static/ will point to files and directories in the static directory of your app. To refer your css file use

{% load static %}
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="{% static 'appname/style.css' %}">
