It looks like this app runs the compiled main.js file (fishbone/static/js/main.compiled.js) even when you are developing in your local environment. Is it possible to run the unminified js code with App Engine in dev env and minified in prod? I set up a way of checking if my build directory existed and using it if it does, but it's still a little cludgy. Do you know of a way to do this with App Engine?
- unbound 13y agoYou are right. For now it runs the minified js in both envs. Yes, it is possible to fix it. There is a local_settings.py which can be customised for each environment separately. If you set the DEBUG variable to TRUE, you can include appropriate assets by checking debug variable in django template. I will add this functionality asap.
- wlindner 13y agoI see! That's pretty cool. I don't really use django, I basically just use app engine as a backend REST api for my backbone.js app. So, I check if the build directly exists when I'm first loading the app, and the template loads the minified version if it exists, and the unminified version if it doesn't exist. That way I can test the production version by running `grunt build` and refreshing the page. But I still get all the benefits of developing on the unminified version if I just delete the build directory and refresh the page.
