Integration

Fanstatic can be integrated with a number of web frameworks:

• Zope/Grok through zope.fanstatic

• Pyramid through pyramid_fanstatic

• Flask through Flask-Fanstatic

• Django through django_fanstatic.

In order to integrate Fanstatic with your web framework, make sure the following conditions are met:

• base_url: if your web framework supports virtual hosting, make sure to set the base_url attribute on the NeededResources object.

• Error pages: if your web framework renders error pages, make sure to clear the NeededResources before rendering the error page, in order to prevent resources from the original page ‘leaking’ onto the error page.

• URL calculation: Fanstatic can also serve non-JavaScript and non-CSS resources (such as images) that you link to from the views in your application. In order to do so, we advise to support rendering URLs to resources from the view/page templates in your web framework.
