I use django-pipeline to deal with css, javascript files in my Django projects.
But I wonder how I could deal with image files using django-pipeline.
There is no manual for image in docs.
Should I use Django built-in {% load staticfiles%} for images?
Then should I use both {% load staticfiles%} and {% load pipelines %}?
Thanks.

Your IDE isn't configured to work with Django markup language, try add django plugin:
Search django on plugins and hit install.
Then, on your file click inside detected language (HTML) and change to Django HTML
I am beginner in Django web development & currently I am using using bootstrap4 by loading bootstrap.min.css & bootstrap.min.js as below in html files.
<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/4.4.1/css/bootstrap.min.css">
<script src="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/4.4.1/js/bootstrap.min.js"></script>
Recently I have found that there been module in Django named django-bootstrap4 & I am reading its documentation also.
https://django-bootstrap4.readthedocs.io/
I have tried to find difference between those but not found any.
Which will be suitable to use in web development?
Tried to find answer on google but not found any so please can someone explain me difference between these two?
The Bootstrap itself is an independent CSS framework that you can use to build your UI no matter the application framework. But django-bootstrap4 is basically a helper library to seamlessly integrate Bootstrap with your Django project UI.
For example consider you want to use alert component in Bootstrap. After adding bootstrap.min.css & bootstrap.min.js to your template, every time you want to show the alert you should add code like this:
<div class="alert alert-danger" role="alert">
Something went wrong
</div>
But with django-bootstrap4 you can simply use {% load bootstrap4 %} in your template and then there in no need to writing all the tags and classes.
{% bootstrap_alert "Something went wrong" alert_type='error' %}
So they are basically is the same but the later is cleaner and more maintainable.
I added a Minecraft Overviewer render to my django site and stored all of the png, js, and css files in the static folder. The render contains tens of thousands of these files and I don't want to manually do
{% static 'render/name.js' %}
40,000 times through various file paths. Is there a way to just let django navigate through all of these files?
I am using bootstrap offline with :
{% load bootstrap3 %}
{% bootstrap_css %}
{% bootstrap_javascript %}
in my template, but the code for the first carousel shown here http://www.w3schools.com/bootstrap/bootstrap_grid_basic.asp
does not work unless I have the CDN links:
<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.3.7/css/bootstrap.min.css">
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script src="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.3.7/js/bootstrap.min.js"></script>
what {% %} do I need to make carousel work ?
Ok.. I have got the answer for Offline Carousel for bootstrap.
Download > jquery slim build (https://code.jquery.com/jquery-3.3.1.slim.js)
Copy the contents in your own File as JS file (like copy paste codes in your file and save as jquery.js)
Link your script inside body tag (before body tag ends) like...<script src="jquery.js"></script>
Finally link bootstrap js file as step 3.
Thank You!
From looking at the documentation, it does not appear that you can use Bootstrap features offline by default. If you look at the default settings for django-bootstrap3, you will see that this package does use the CDNs behind the scenes.
As far as I know, the only way to use bootstrap offline would be to have a copy of the Bootstrap css and JavaScript files saved on your local machine, as well as the jQuery files, since the Bootstrap JavaScript plugins depend on that.
I have not used django-bootstrap3 but it looks like if you have a copy of the necessary Bootstrap files stored locally, you should be able to update your Django settings for django-bootstrap3 to point to these local copies instead of the copies on the various CDNs.
I'm creating a web based application in Django. The app will generate multi-page pdf reports with Latex. Currently I'm generating the tex files using Jinja2. Since my web app is using the Django template engine, I thought I might as well use it to generate the tex file that will be sent to pdflatex. In Jinja2 I changed the block_start_string and block_end_string from {% and %} to {# and #} respectively. I did this so that it plays nicely with Latex.
My question is, can I change block_start_string to {# in Django, but only for the part of my code that needs to generate the tex files? My html templates should still use {% and %}. Jinja2 has a concept of environments, not sure if Django also has?
Django does not currently support changing the block start or end strings, however Django does support using Jinja2 as a template backend. This way, you can use your existing templates.
