Installation¶
Prerequisites¶
Note
django-webp-converter requires that Pillow and its appropriate libraries are installed. Please see https://pillow.readthedocs.org/ for instructions on installing Pillow and its dependencies.
Installation¶
Install django-webp-converter with pip
:
$ pip install django-webp-converter
Add webp_converter
to your INSTALLED_APPS in settings.py:
INSTALLED_APPS = (
...,
'webp_converter',
)
Add the webp_support
context processor to your list of context processors:
'context_processors': [
...,
'webp_converter.context_processors.webp_support',
]
Run ./manage.py migrate
to add the required tables to the database.
You will also need to configure django to serve locally stored files by
configuring the MEDIA_URL
and MEDIA_ROOT
settings in your project’s
settings.py file.
For example:
MEDIA_URL = '/media/'
MEDIA_ROOT = os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'media')
You’ll probably also want to ensure that these files will be served during development.
