Serving static files (CSS, JavaScript, images, etc)¶
Place static files in ‘public’ folder. If no these files will be served up from there just as they would in a “normal” web server. You might want to consider putting all static files in a static directory, so that you can use apache/nginx to serve up these static files for you when you go into production, or later when you’re traffic requires it.
Getting rid of the static file middleware¶
If your app is running in production, and Apache or another web server is handling this static content, edit config/middleware.py and remove
javascripts_app = StaticJavascripts()
static_app = StaticURLParser(config['pylons.paths']['static_files'])
app = Cascade([static_app, javascripts_app, app])
