Installing from PyPI is as easy as doing:

pip install django-storages

If you'd prefer to install from source (maybe there is a bugfix in master that hasn't been released yet) then the magic incantation you are looking for is:

pip install -e 'git+https://github.com/jschneier/django-storages.git#egg=django-storages'

For detailed instructions on how to configure the backend of your choice please consult the documentation.

django-storages is a project to provide a variety of storage backends in a single library.

This library is usually compatible with the currently supported versions of Django. Check the Trove classifiers in setup.py to be sure.

django-storages is backed in part by Tidelift. Check them out for all of your enterprise open source software commercial support needs.

To report a security vulnerability, please use the Tidelift security contact. Tidelift will coordinate the fix and disclosure. Please do not post a public issue on the tracker.

Issues are tracked via GitHub issues at the project issue page.

Documentation for django-storages is located at https://django-storages.readthedocs.io/.

1. Check for open issues at the project issue page or open a new issue to start a discussion about a feature or bug.
2. Fork the django-storages repository on GitHub to start making changes.
3. Add a test case to show that the bug is fixed or the feature is implemented correctly.
4. Bug me until I can merge your pull request.

Please don't update the library version in CHANGELOG.rst or storages/__init__.py, the maintainer will do that on release.

This repo began as a fork of the original library under the package name of django-storages-redux and became the official successor (releasing under django-storages on PyPI) in February of 2016.
