A Django storage backend for local development that downloads files from the live site on the fly.
Project description
django-localdevstorage is a set of storage backends that helps during development. Instead of having to copy all user generated media from the live site for local development, the storage backends provided by django-localdevstorage will download media files that are not available locally “on demand”.
Installation
Set one of the provided storage backends in your settings.py. These are:
HTTP: DEFAULT_FILE_STORAGE = 'localdevstorage.http.HttpStorage'
(more will follow)
HTTP
Set the fallback domain that should be used to fetch missing files. This is usually the protocol (http or https) and the domain your live site:
LOCALDEVSTORAGE_HTTP_FALLBACK_DOMAIN = 'http://www.example.com/'
If your server is secured with HTTP basic auth, you can provide a username and password:
LOCALDEVSTORAGE_HTTP_USERNAME = 'foo' LOCALDEVSTORAGE_HTTP_PASSWORD = 'bar'
SFTP
There are three settings that need to be configured for the SFTP backend:
LOCALDEVSTORAGE_SFTP_USER
LOCALDEVSTORAGE_SFTP_HOST
LOCALDEVSTORAGE_SFTP_ROOT_PATH: this should be the MEDIA_ROOT on the remote machine in most cases.
Caveats
Since django-localdevstorage extends a Django storage backend (FileSystemStorage to be precise), only code that uses Django’s file storage abstraction works with django-localdevstorage. Code that bypasses Django and accesses files directly will not benefit.
