Django collectstatic + Gulp watch

gulpfile.js

var gulp = require('gulp');
var shell = require('gulp-shell');
var changed = require('gulp-changed');


gulp.task('collectstatic', function () {
  return gulp.src('static/**/*.*')
    .pipe(changed('YOURAPP/static/'))
    .pipe(shell([
      'python manage.py collectstatic --noinput'
    ]));
});


gulp.task('watch', function () {
  gulp.watch('static/**/*.*', ['collectstatic']);
});

Might consider using python manage.py collectstatic -i node_modules -i bower_components --noinput.

I also forked this gist and I believe I've used better security practices... as outlined by gulp's blacklist and gulp-exec:

@robbintt, thanks for sharing this gist.
I'm trying to figure out your use case for it.

Am I right if I say that this gist is useful when developing in a Django environment that is somewhat "production-like"? That is, instead of using the Django built-in development server, the gist is most useful when using something like Apache+mod_wsgi for serving the website on a development environment.
