问题
How do I resolve? I don't want to push a copy of Django Admin's CSS to my static files unless I have to. Is that my only option or ??
回答1:
Once you move your application to production, in addition to setting DEBUG = False in your settings.py, you also have to run collectstatic and then upload these files to your webserver.
collectstatic will put all the static files that are required for all installed applications, including the django.contrib apps (like the django admin), into the folder you specified as STATIC_ROOT. You should then copy the entire contents of this folder to wherever your STATIC_URL is pointing to.
If you don't do the above, your stylesheets and other assets will not appear correctly.
As you are using S3, the excellent django-extensions package provides a sync_s3 command that will handle synchronizing your bucket for you.
Starting from django 1.6, there is an official list of things you should do before you are ready to deploy; so if you are on the current version of django make sure you visit that page. It is also pointed to in the comments in settings.py.
回答2:
in Django 1.3 you could set STATIC_URL to the S3 URL and ADMIN_PREFIX to your local server, creating a webserver alias that serves the files
(in Apache for example: Alias /static/admin/ /absolute/path/to/static/admin/)
but AFAIK this is deprecated in Django 1.4 and not possible with Django >= 1.5, since they always will point to {{STATIC_URL}}admin/.
but i don't understand, why wouldn't you upload your admin static!? i strongly suggest to colletstatic all your media to S3 :)
(i don't know if i understood you question correctly, i'll update the answer if not)
