This error occurs when performing command python manage.py collectstatic
:
0 static files copied to '/home/project'.
That means there is no changes and my static files already exist in the destination but in this folder only one file:
static/
- staticfiles.json
But I want all my CSS, js, HTML for panel admin to be in it.
Django Settings:
BASE_DIR = os.path.dirname(os.path.dirname(os.path.abspath(__file__)))
STATIC_URL = '/static/'
STATIC_ROOT = os.path.join(BASE_DIR, "/static/")
STATICFILES_DIRS = (
STATIC_ROOT,
)
urls.py
...
urlpatterns += static(settings.MEDIA_URL, document_root=settings.MEDIA_ROOT)
urlpatterns += static(settings.STATIC_URL, document_root=settings.STATIC_ROOT)
Define all paths with STATICFILES_DIRS
where Django will look for static files.
For example:
STATICFILES_DIRS = [os.path.join(BASE_DIR, "templates/staticfiles")]
When you run collectstatic
, Django will copy all found files in all your paths from STATICFILES_DIRS
into STATIC_ROOT
.
In your case, Django will copy all files to:
STATIC_ROOT = os.path.join(BASE_DIR, "/static/")
After that, your static files are accessible through your defined STATIC_URL
URL. In your case:
STATIC_URL = '/static/'
