django static 文件的相对路径

Question

I am trying to find a way to read a JSON file from static files without hardcoding the path to the file.

   def value_setup():
       with open('path/to/static/config/species.json') as f:
           data = json.loads(f.read())

       values = data["value"]
       return values

Is there a way to open this file with just a relative path from the static folder?

Answer 1

As long as your STATIC_ROOT and STATICFILES_DIR are well configured you can use the finder's module to do that. Just make shure you don't have multiple files with the same path after static root.
