Hashed filenames not being updated

[chrisspen]

If I run:

manage.py collectstatic --noinput

Pipeline correctly generates the collected, minimized and hashed file in my static folder. e.g. /static/js/index.59efce78ac06.js

However, the {% javascript 'index_js' %} template tag does not generate the corresponding filename. The hash it uses seems to get stuck on the last hash and never updates to the one just generated. I have to kill and restart runserver for it to use the new hash.

This only seems to happen when DEBUG=False, so it's not a problem in development. However, this is a huge problem for a production environment, because it means you have to restart your Django process every single time you update your static media and run collectstatic.

My pipeline settings are:

PIPELINE = {
    'CSS_COMPRESSOR': 'pipeline.compressors.cssmin.CSSMinCompressor',
    'JS_COMPRESSOR': 'pipeline.compressors.jsmin.JSMinCompressor',
    'PIPELINE_ENABLED': True,
    'PIPELINE_COLLECTOR_ENABLED': True,
    'STYLESHEETS': {
        'global_css': {
            'source_filenames': (...),
            'output_filename':
            'css/global.css',
            'extra_context': {
                'media': 'screen,projection',
            },
        },
        'index_css': {
            'source_filenames': (...,),
            'output_filename': 'css/index.css',
            'extra_context': {
                'media': 'screen,projection',
            },
        },
    },
    'JAVASCRIPT': {
        'index_js': {
            'source_filenames': (...,),
            'output_filename': 'js/index.js',
        }
    },
}
