django-flashpolicies 1.6

This application enables simple management of Flash cross-domain policies (which are required for Flash content to access information across domains) for Django-powered sites. Cross-domain policies are represented by an XML file format, and this application generates and serves the appropriate XML.

In the simplest case, you’ll just set up one URL pattern, pointing the URL /crossdomain.xml to the view flashpolicies.views.simple() and passing a list of domains from which you want to allow access. For example, to allow access from Flash content served from media.example.com, you could place the following in the root URLconf of your Django site (along with the appropriate import statement to make flashpolicies.views available):

url(r'^crossdomain.xml$',
    flashpolicies.views.simple,
    {'domains': ['media.example.com']}),
