See https://github.com/openedx/edx-platform/issues/34702 This necessarily involves switching from calling `StaticContent.is_versioned_asset_path` to determine whether to handle the request to having a hardcoded urlpattern. I've made the choice to hardcode the other two patterns similarly rather than using imported constants. The mapping of URL patterns to database records should be explicit (even though we don't expect those constants to change out from under us.) I've renamed the middleware rather than choosing a new name for the implementation because there are other references in tests and other code. This was the smaller change. A note on HTTP methods: The middleware currently completely ignores the request's HTTP method, so I wanted to confirm that only GETs were being used in practice. This query reveals that 99.8% of requests that this middleware handles are GET, with just a smattering of PROPFIND and OPTIONS and a tiny number of HEAD and POST: ``` from Transaction select count(*) facet request.method where name = 'WebTransaction/Function/openedx.core.djangoapps.contentserver.middleware:StaticContentServer' since 4 weeks ago ```
Open edX -------- This is the root package for Open edX. The intent is that all importable code from Open edX will eventually live here, including the code in the lms, cms, and common directories. If you're adding a new Django app, place it in core/djangoapps. If you're adding utilities that require Django, place them in core/djangolib. If you're adding code that defines no Django models or views of its own but is widely useful, put it in core/lib. Note: All new code should be created in this package, and the legacy code will be moved here gradually. For now the code is not structured like this, and hence legacy code will continue to live in a number of different packages.
