I'm using the static Nginx app to serve user-uploaded files; so far this works fine, except that I need to control who can download which files. What's the best way to do this without having django serve the file download? I found several threads on the old forum that talked about this, but they all seem to require compiling my own version of Apache or Nginx as custom "listening on port" app. Is there an easier way to do this? asked 08 Jul '12, 07:01 lieryan |
Authentication cannot be done in a static-only app, so you either need to serve them directly in Django, or compile a custom Nginx server to configure it for this purpose (it will be faster than using Django). answered 08 Jul '12, 07:33 todork |
