def serve(request, path, document_root=None, show_indexes=False):

Serve static files below a given point in the directory structure.

To use, put a URL pattern such as:

from django.views.static import serve

path('<path:path>', serve, {'document_root': '/path/to/my/files/'})

in your URLconf. You must provide the document_root param. You may also set show_indexes to True if you'd like to serve a basic index of the directory. This index view will use the template hardcoded below, but if you'd like to override it, you can create a template called static/directory_index.html.
