Serving Media Files in Development
During development, Django can serve media files using the django.conf.urls.static
helper. Add the following to your urls.py
:
from django.conf import settings
from django.conf.urls.static import static
urlpatterns = [
# Your URL patterns
] + static(settings.MEDIA_URL, document_root=settings.MEDIA_ROOT)
File Storage in Production
In production, it’s recommended to use dedicated file storage solutions like AWS S3, Google Cloud Storage, or other services to manage media files.
