django-flashpolicies 1.8¶
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 many cases, the same policy file will also be understood by Microsoft’s Silverlight browser plugin, which supports the Adobe Flash format as a fallback in the absence of a file in its own native cross-domain policy format.
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']}),
