I have following case: I want to use uncompressed js/css files during development (to debug js for example) but on production I want to switch automatically to minified versions of that files.
some simple solution is to put in your template:
<script src="some_js.{% if not debug %}min.{% endif %}js"....
but this require manully providing that such file exist and to do minifaction manullay after original file change.
How do you accomplish this in your projects? Is there any tool for this?
Did you try django-compress ?
If you already are using django-compress, you should have a look at upgrading to django-pipeline, which is a well maintained fork, with a lot of new features. I encourage everyone to who is using django-compress to switch to django-pipeline instead: * django-pipeline documentation
