Installation

1. Either check out Pipeline from GitHub or to pull a release off PyPI

   pip install django-pipeline

2. Add ‘pipeline’ to your INSTALLED_APPS

   INSTALLED_APPS = (
       'pipeline',
   )
   

3. Use a pipeline storage for STATICFILES_STORAGE

Note

You need to use Django>=1.4 or django-staticfiles>=1.2.1 to be able to use this version of pipeline.

Recommendations

Pipeline’s default CSS and JS compressor is Yuglify. Yuglify wraps UglifyJS and cssmin, applying the default YUI configurations to them. It can be downloaded from: https://github.com/yui/yuglify/.

If you do not install yuglify, make sure to disable the compressor in your settings.
