Serve multiple sites from a single Django application
Project description
Get the code via git:
git clone git://github.com/ecometrica/django-multisite.git django-multisite
Add the django-multisite/multisite folder to your PYTHONPATH.
Quickstart
Replace your SITE_ID in settings.py to:
from multisite import SiteID SITE_ID = SiteID()
Add to settings.py TEMPLATE_LOADERS:
TEMPLATE_LOADERS = (
'multisite.template_loader.Loader',
'django.template.loaders.app_directories.Loader',
)
Edit to settings.py MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES:
MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES = (
...
'multisite.middleware.DynamicSiteMiddleware',
...
)
Append to settings.py, in order to use a custom cache that can be safely cleared:
# The cache connection to use for django-multisite. # Default: 'default' CACHE_MULTISITE_ALIAS = 'multisite' # The cache key prefix that django-multisite should use. # Default: '' (Empty string) CACHE_MULTISITE_KEY_PREFIX = ''
If you have set CACHE_MULTISITE_ALIAS to a custom value, e.g. 'multisite', add a separate backend to settings.py CACHES:
CACHES = {
'default': {
...
},
'multisite': {
'BACKEND': 'django.core.cache.backends.locmem.LocMemCache',
'TIMEOUT': 60 * 60 * 24, # 24 hours
...
},
}
Domain fallbacks
By default, if the domain name is unknown, multisite will respond with an HTTP 404 Not Found error. To change this behaviour, add to settings.py:
# The view function or class-based view that django-multisite will
# use when it cannot match the hostname with a Site. This can be
# the name of the function or the function itself.
# Default: None
MULTISITE_FALLBACK = 'django.views.generic.base.RedirectView
# Keyword arguments for the MULTISITE_FALLBACK view.
# Default: {}
MULTISITE_FALLBACK_KWARGS = {'url': 'http://example.com/',
'permanent': False}
Create a directory settings.TEMPLATE_DIRS directory with the names of domains, such as:
mkdir templates/example.com
