A reusable app to add simple favicon.ico handling for your site.

Install "django-favicon" using pip or easy_install:

pip install django-favicon

Add "favicon" to your INSTALLED_APPS in settings.py:

INSTALLED_APPS = (
    ...
    'favicon',
)

Add favicon URL patterns to urls.py:

urlpatterns = patterns('',
    ...
    url(r'^', include('favicon.urls')),
)

Put favicon.ico into your STATIC_ROOT. and you good to go, /favicon.ico will automatically redirect to /static/favicon.ico if your STATIC_URL = '/static/'.

Otherwise you can set a custom path to your favicon using FAVICON_PATH setting. For example:

FAVICON_PATH = STATIC_URL + 'images/favicon.png'

You can run the tests with via:

python setup.py test

or:

python runtests.py
