how to get favicon.ico work on tornado

the tornado server didn't do the favicon.ico by default,so i always get the info like these

[W 130626 10:38:16 web:1514] 404 GET /favicon.ico (192.168.1.57) 0.57ms

i use the web.staticfilehandler in various way include the source's example,and couldn't get it work, i got things work like this below.

handlers = [
    (r'/favicon.ico', tornado.web.StaticFileHandler,dict(url='/static/favicon.ico',permanent=False)),
    (r'/static/(.*)', tornado.web.StaticFileHandler, {"path": "plserver"}),
 ]

i felt so dump,i have to redirect it and couldn't sure it will work on web page in real world.

Solution

  • And I changed it to this one, this time I've got what I want 

    handlers = [
    (r'/(favicon.ico)', tornado.web.StaticFileHandler, {"path": ""}),
 ]

    I got the answer while i wrote the post.
