Reusable django app to handle /favicon.ico and robots.txt for your site
Project description
A reusable app to add favicon.ico and robots.txt handling for your site.
Installation
Install “django-site-basics” using pip or easy_install:
pip install django-site-basics
Add “favicon” to your INSTALLED_APPS in settings.py:
INSTALLED_APPS = ( ... 'site_basics', )
Add site_basics URL patterns to urls.py:
urlpatterns = patterns('', ... url(r'^', include('site_basics.urls')), )
Usage
Put favicon.ico into your STATIC_ROOT. and you good to go, /favicon.ico will automatically redirect to /static/favicon.ico if your STATIC_URL = ‘/static/’.
Otherwise you can set a custom path to your favicon using FAVICON_PATH setting. For example:
FAVICON_PATH = STATIC_URL + 'images/favicon.png'
robots.txt will be working out of the box but if you need to customize it put custom robots.txt file into your templates directory. If you need to change template location use ROBOTS_TEMPLATE setting (robots.txt by default). Example:
ROBOTS_TEMPLATE = 'myfolder/robots.txt'

python setup.py test
