This application allows you easily save media and static files into webdav storage.
- requests library
- Install the package
pip install django-webdav-storage- Pick the webdav server url in WEBDAV_URL and `WEBDAV_PUBLIC_URL`:
WEBDAV_URL = 'http://webdav.example.com/',
WEBDAV_PUBLIC_URL = 'http://webdav.example.com/'If you want use HTTP Basic authorization to webdav access, you can specify your credentials like that:
WEBDAV_URL = 'http://johndoe:secret@webdav.example.com/'- Set the webdav storage class as default:
DEFAULT_FILE_STORAGE = 'django_webdav_storage.storage.WebDavStorage'- If your webdav backend can't recursively create path (e.g. nginx can do this, while apache can't), set the WEBDAV_RECURSIVE_MKCOL variable to `True`:
WEBDAV_RECURSIVE_MKCOL = True- If you use nginx as webdav server and want to enable storage directory listing, set the WEBDAV_LISTING_BACKEND option to:
WEBDAV_LISTING_BACKEND = 'django_webdav_storage.listing.nginx_autoindex'Autoindex feature must be enabled in your nginx configuration for application servers (see example below). Be careful! Allowing autoindex for any user may lead to security and performance issues.
Also, you may specify path to other function with the following interface:
def listdir(storage_object, path_string):
return dirs_list, files_list# Public readonly media server.
server {
listen 80;
charset utf-8;
server_tokens off;
server_name media.example.com;
access_log /var/log/nginx/media_access.log;
error_log /var/log/nginx/media_error.log;
root /usr/share/nginx/webdav;
}
