Breaking change in Django-Storages

[stuartmaxwell]

Hi there - thanks for writing up this repo and the accompanying article. Just wanted to let you know that there have been a number of breaking changes with the latest update of Django-Storages. The result is that files uploaded with the collectstatic files will not be set to public-read permissions, which obviously means that all the static files are not accessible to the public.

The fix is easy and you need to replace:

AWS_DEFAULT_ACL = 'public-read'

with

AWS_S3_OBJECT_PARAMETERS = {
    'ACL': 'public-read',
}

Also, because your code is also changing the CacheControl parameter, the full fix is as follows:

AWS_S3_OBJECT_PARAMETERS = {
    "ACL": "public-read",
    "CacheControl": "max-age=86400"
}

Hope that helps - this issue has more details and better explanation: jschneier/django-storages#927

Cheers - Stuart.

This was fixed in release 1.10.1 per this comment.

Updating the post now. Using version 1.11.1, and it still works fine with AWS_DEFAULT_ACL / default_acl.
