Django template variables in linked javascript

I have javascript in the form <script src="/static/file.js" /> in a Django template. I would like this referenced file.js to get the {{ STATIC_URL }} and other template variables.

What would be the best way to give access to file.js to the template variables?

Render the desired variables in your main layout file, before you include file.js:

<script>
    var STATIC_URL = '{{ STATIC_URL }}';
</script>
<script src="/static/file.js" />
#include other scripts here, STATIC_URL will be available as regular variable
