Simple file serving, video streaming, and real-time updates via django-rsgi
CSS and JavaScript files are served using django-rsgi's static file handler in development, which uses Django's staticfiles finders and FileResponse optimization for zero-copy serving. In production, once assets are collected via collectstatic, Granian serves them directly from the filesystem, eliminating the need for a separate static HTTP server like nginx for most applications.
Media files are served using django-rsgi's optimized file serving with zero-copy transfers, ETag support, and HTTP range requests. This is fast enough to use in production without a separate web server like nginx.
The server time above updates in real-time using an async Django view that streams data via Server-Sent Events (SSE). With Django async views and Granian a single worker can handle thousands of concurrent connections.
This page is served through the RSGI protocol via Granian, providing efficient Python-Rust integration for high-performance web serving.
Videos demonstrate HTTP range request support. When you seek in a video, only the requested portion is served, enabling efficient video streaming through django-rsgi's FileResponse optimization.
{% for video in videos %}Uploaded: {{ video.uploaded_at|date:"M j, Y" }} - Try seeking to different positions to see range requests in action!
