Is there a way I can use the {% load staticfiles %} to load CSS files in django?
Variations of this don't work and this is obviously wrong:
<css src="{% static "/css/bootstrap/bootstrap.min.css" %}" rel="stylesheet">
Whats the proper way to load css files using this django tag?
EDIT
Here was my actual solution:
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="{% static 'css/bootstrap/bootstrap.min.css' %}" />
Remove the leading / slash from the {% static %} tag argument:
{% static "css/bootstrap/bootstrap.min.css" %}

Let's just say I have a basic class-based view like:
from django.views.generic import TemplateView
class HomePage(TemplateView):
template_name = "homepage.html"
and in homepage.html of course we load some CSS, apocryphally:
{% extends "base.html" %}
{% load static %}
{% block CSS %}
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="{% static 'css/default.css' %}" />
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="some CDN based CSS file' %}" />
{% endblock %}
Now I'd like the view to read/load the CSS that will be sent to the client.
If we could just find the source files, we could parse them with cssutils.
And of course it's technically possible to find and parse the template file too, but Django already implements that and has a template loader. Is there any way short of rendering the template into a string, and trying to parse the HTML to extract CSS rules? And even if that's the path we need to pursue, is there a package that will given rendered HTML, and return the CSS rules?
An interesting problem that arises from the need, server-side, to extract some CSS information, notably colours.
Maybe I don't understand it. My main template is: app/Resources/view... But where should be css/js/img ? In my opinion in: app/Resources/view/public/... Because it isn't files bundles and all project in production environment. In my case "frontend page".
Of course, when the files(css/js/img) belongs to bundle is in appropriate bundle.
Now I have:
{% stylesheets '../app/Resources/views/public/css/*' %}
<link href="{{ asset_url }}" type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" />
{% endstylesheets %}
Assetic Add file located in app/Resources/js
But don't see images files.
How according to the standard symony2, I should store and manage "main" template files?
I would like to safely and well. I learn the symfony2.
All "web assets resources" should be place into web folder (that is made for all files "reachable" from the www).
You only need to run php app/consolle assets:install(*) to let symfony place all of your assets in the right place
When you want to use them simply use
<link href="{{ asset('bundles/yourbundlename/css/style.css') }}" type="text/css" rel="stylesheet">
(or whatever you have called your files)
(*) you can choose even the --symlink option to avoid file copies
All the images CSS js file should be kept in /web folder and can be used
{% stylesheets '/css/*' %}
<link href="/abc.css" type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" />
{% endstylesheets %}
or should be kept in bundle and you have to assetic dump them.
{% javascripts '#AppBundle/Resources/public/js/*' %}
<script src="{{ asset_url }}"></script>
{% endjavascripts %}
kindly refer the below link for the same:

I am working on a Symfony2 application. I am customising the layout.html.twig file from the FOSUserBundle.
Any HTML changes I make within the file are immediately obvious when I reload the page in the browser.
I am using assetic to link to my CSS and JS files. They appear to have linked successfully, the files contents load when I click on their paths from within the source of the web page.
However the CSS classes I have specified on the elements of the page don't seem to be appearing with their styles applied. I can't figure out why this is.
Here is the syntax I've used to link to the JS and CSS:
{% javascripts
'bundles/sysdevpunctuality/js/jquery-2.1.1.min.js'
'bundles/sysdevpunctuality/bootstrap-3.2.0-dist/js/bootstrap.min.js'
%}
<script src="{{ asset_url }}"></script>
{% endjavascripts %}
<!-- Bootstrap -->
{% stylesheets 'bundles/sysdevpunctuality/bootstrap-3.2.0-dist/css/bootstrap.css' filter='cssrewrite' %}
<link rel="stylesheets" href="{{ asset_url }}" media="screen" />
{% endstylesheets %}
Appreciate any tips on how I can go about debugging this issue.
I had the same problem, try this syntax:
{% block stylesheets %}
<link href="{{ asset('bundles/sysdevpunctuality/bootstrap-3.2.0-dist/css/bootstrap.css') }}" type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" />
{% endblock %}
Of course don't forget to install assets:
php app/console assets:install web --symlink
i cant comment but my suggestion is check the page source of the generated webpage, then you can check the directory where symfony is looking for the resources.
I'm using KnPUniversity's video tutorial on Getting Started with Symfony2, and everthing's been going good except the video is teaching based off of version 2.0.3 and I am using 2.1.x-dev. When I get to a certain point in the video, it directs me to write code block #1 then modify it to more efficiently use code block #2, except code block #2 doesn't work. It doesn't throw any errors, it just fails to actually detect the stylesheets. In the source code of the page, there are zero references to any css style sheets using code block #2. Any idea what I'm doing wrong?
{# this causes the page to be styled and works fine #}
{% block stylesheets %}
<link rel="stylesheet" href="{{ asset('bundles/event/css/event.css') }}">
<link rel="stylesheet" href="{{ asset('bundles/event/css/events.css') }}">
<link rel="stylesheet" href="{{ asset('bundles/event/css/main.css') }}">
{% endblock %}
.
{# this causes the page to be unstyled. Missing stylesheet links in page source #}
{% block stylesheets %}
{% stylesheets
'bundes/event/css/*'
filter='cssrewrite'
%}
<link rel="stylesheet" href="{{ asset_url }}">
{% endstylesheets %}
{% endblock %}
Well, I had a typo. It's not "bundes" it's "bundles". Problem solved and I'm an idiot.
When you use {{ asset() }} it creates a link to your web (public) directory.
But for the second part Assetic manages the css files - so it looks for the file inside your application and then writes it out into your web directory.
To fix your problem you can change your stylesheets like this:
{% stylesheets
'%kernel.root_dir%/../web/bundes/event/css/*'
filter='cssrewrite'
%}
But I suggest reading more about assetic to understand how you should be managing your css files Symfony 2 Assetic
I normally place my JS and CSS Assetic assets inside a DefaultBundle, but I suppose the best place to put them would be in the app/Resources/public/(js|css) folders.
Also, to reference assets we use:
{% javascripts filter="" output="js/core.js" debug=true
"#DefaultBundle/Resources/public/js/jquery-1.6.2.js" %}
<script src="{{ asset_url }}" type="text/javascript"></script>
{% endjavascripts %}
How do I go about referencing shared assets like jQuery and my CSS reset stylesheets in app/Resources/public/...?
You could also use this:
{% stylesheets '../app/Resources/public/css/*' %}
<link href="{{ asset_url }}" type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" />
{% endstylesheets %}
Yes it's a good choice to not put libraries inside a Bundle
see here : http://symfony.com/doc/current/cookbook/bundles/best_practices.html#vendors
A bundle should not embed third-party libraries written in JavaScript, CSS, or any other language.
What i suggest you, is to put you jquery and reset files under something like: app/Resources/public/js/jquery.min.js and to change your code with something like:
{% javascripts filter="" output="js/core.js" debug=true
"../app/Resources/public/js/jquery-1.6.2.js" %}
<script src="{{ asset_url }}" type="text/javascript"></script>
{% endjavascripts %}
I hope this will work for you.
EDIT: Edited answer to be like https://stackoverflow.com/a/9237004/505836, thanks David.
My solution is almost the same as David's, but using %kernel.root_dir% instead of hard-coding the app folder (although, I doubt many change this folder's name), e.g.:
{%- javascripts output='compiled/main.js'
'%kernel.root_dir%/Resources/public/js/jquery-1.10.2.min.js'
'%kernel.root_dir%/Resources/public/js/underscore-1.5.2.min.js'
'#MyOwnBundle/Resources/public/js/default.js'
-%}
<script src='{{ asset_url }}'></script>
{%- endjavascripts %}
If the third party libraries reference their own assets (e.g. typically images in a img sub-folder, referenced from .css files), it's usually sufficient to create the corresponding symlinks on the server, e.g. ln -s .../app/Resources/public/img .../web/img or something similar. Or use the cssrewrite filter, of course - but beware of its caveats.
(Also, note that I don't use the type="<mime-type>" attribute, as the files' content-type is supplied in the HTTP headers anyway.)
You can replace ../app/Resources/public/css/ by public/css/. The same for Javascript folder.
{% stylesheets filter='less' output='css/core' 'public/css/*' %}
<link href="{{ asset_url }}" type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" />
{% endstylesheets %}
{% javascripts "public/js/*" %}
<script src="{{ asset_url }}" type="text/javascript"></script>
{% endjavascripts %}
Here all the files of /web/public folder are automatically loaded.
