-The fast `collectstatic` for Django projects with S3 as storage backend.
-
-Running Django's `collectstatic` command can become really slow as more and more files are
-added to a project, especially if heavy libraries such as jQuery UI are included in the source.
-This is a custom management command that compares the md5 sum of files with S3 and completely
-ignores `modified_time`. The results of the hash lookups are cached locally using your default
-Django cache. This can make deploying much faster!
-
-
-Installation
-------------
-
-Install the app using pip:
-
- $ pip install Collectfast
-
-Make sure you have this in your settings file and add `'collectfast'` to your `INSTALLED_APPS`:
-
-```python
-STATICFILES_STORAGE = "storages.backends.s3boto.S3BotoStorage"
-AWS_PRELOAD_METADATA = True
-INSTALLED_APPS = (
- # …
- 'collectfast',
-)
-```
-For Django 1.7+, `'collectfast'` should come before `'django.contrib.staticfiles'`. For Django versions
-below 1.7, it should come after `'django.contrib.staticfiles'`. Please note, that failure to do so
-will cause Django to use `django.contrib.staticfiles`'s `collectstatic`.
-
-_**Note:** `preload_metadata` of the storage class will be overwritten even if `AWS_PRELOAD_METADATA`
-is not set to True see [#30](https://github.com/antonagestam/collectfast/issues/30)_
-
-
-Setup Dedicated Cache Backend
------------------------------
-
-It's recommended to setup a dedicated cache backend for Collectfast. Every time Collectfast does not
-find a lookup for a file in the cache it will trigger a lookup to the storage backend, so it's
-recommended to have a fairly high `TIMEOUT` setting.
-
-Set up your dedicated cache in settings.py with the `COLLECTFAST_CACHE` setting:
-
-```python
-CACHES = {
- 'default': {
- # Your default cache
- },
- 'collectfast': {
- # Your dedicated Collectfast cache
- }
-}
-
-COLLECTFAST_CACHE = 'collectfast'
-```
-
-By default Collectfast will use the `default` cache.
-
-_**Note:** Collectfast will never clean the cache of obsolete files. To clean out the entire
-cache, use `cache.clear()`.
-[Read more about Django's cache framework.](https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/stable/topics/cache/)_
-
-
-Usage
------
-
-Collectfast overrides Django's builtin `collectstatic` command so just run
-`python manage.py collectstatic` as normal. You can disable collectfast
-by using the `--ignore-etag` option.
-
-You can also disable collectfast by setting `COLLECTFAST_ENABLED = False` in
-your settings file. This is useful when using a local file storage backend
-for development.

-Contribution
-------------
-
-Please feel free to contribute by using issues and pull requests. Discussion is open and welcome.
-Testing is currently being implemented and will be mandatory for new features once merged.
