Django - Dynamically include JS/CSS based on installed apps -

does know way adjust included js/css resources in template based on apps you've installed?

let's have basic feature in app x using template.html, , requires foo.js provided in static files app.

what i'd way of saying additional , optional app y can register bar.js included in template.html , provides advanced functionality.

ideally, should tied in on feature level - register both foo.js , bar.js provide feature a , in template indicate want static content a.

you can follow django admin framework approach. in base template have section style , javascript. based on condition can insert new files.

for example:

define these 2 blocks in base template

{% block extracss %}{% endblock %} {% block extrajs %}{% endblock %} 

if want add js or css based on condition, can add check inside

    {% block extracss %}        {% if new_app_installed %}           # insert css        {% else %}            # default         {% endif %}      {% endblock %} 

you can check if plugin app installed , pass context variable view template.

from django.conf import settings  if "new_app" in settings.installed_apps:     is_new_app_installed = true
