*Can someone help me understand how to upload static file( images specifically) into a website using django v. 2.0. My codes are as below and I keep getting a broken image icon on my website *
My settings.py
import os
BASE_DIR = os.path.dirname(os.path.dirname(os.path.abspath(file)))
TEMPLATE_DIR = os.path.join(BASE_DIR,'templates')
STATIC_DIR = os.path.join( BASE_DIR , 'static' )
STATIC_URL = '/static/'
STATICFILES_DIR = [ STATIC_DIR, ]
STATIC_ROOT = STATIC_DIR
My index.html file(not the whole of it)
<!DOCTYPE html>
{% load staticfiles %}
img src="{% static 'images/volcano.jpg' %}" height="400" width="400"
The path to my image is
C:\Users\user\Envs\website\website\static\images\volcano.jpg
My urls.py file is
from django.contrib import admin
from django.urls import path, include
from blog.views import home
urlpatterns = [
path('admin/', admin.site.urls),
path('',home, name='home'),
path('blog/', include('blog.urls')),
]
My views.py
from django.shortcuts import render
from django.http import HttpResponse
def home(request):
context_dict = {'boldmessage': "Crunchy, creamy, cookie, candy, cupcake!"}
return render(request,'rango/index.html',context=context_dict)
