Add Favicon in RSS feeds in Django

Question

I have used RSS Feed with django,

I have refer the below link https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/contrib/syndication/

And properly created the RSS, but Now I want to add the favicon for the RSS feeds pages.

Can anybody suggest me?

Thanks.

My code is:

In feeds/feed.py

class LatestArticlesFeed(Feed):

    title='News -RSS'
    link='/' # URI of site
    description='Latest Article Entries'

    def get_object(self, request):
        category_slug = request.GET.get('category_slug')
        category = Category.objects.get(slug = category_slug)

    def items(self, obj):
        article_list = Article.objects.filter(category =obj)[:10]
        return article_list

    def item_title (self, item):
        return item.headline

In urls.py

(r'^feeds/article/$', LatestArticlesFeed()),

Answer 1

Add this to your urls.py file:

(r'^favicon\.ico$', 
 'django.views.generic.simple.redirect_to', 
 {'url': '/media/favicon.ico'}),

If you're talking about a WebFaction Django install, you should be able to edit the .conf file in the apache2 directory in your app's directory and add a Redirect /favicon.ico http://example.com/static/favicon.ico

Note that you can also specify a favicon in the HTML:

<link rel="shortcut icon" href="http://example.com/myicon.ico" />

Answer 2

As of Django 1.5 simple views like from Plymorphin's answer don't exist anymore. Modern approach to do this is presented below.

Assuming you have your favicon with other static files at: your_app/static/favicon.ico you can add to main urls.py:

from django.contrib.staticfiles.templatetags import staticfiles
from django.views.generic import base

...

urlpatterns += patterns(
    '',
    url('^favicon\.ico$',
        base.RedirectView.as_view(url=staticfiles.static('favicon.ico'))),
)

or extend existing patterns inline.
