> Hello,
I am not an experienced django developer so maybe this solution doesnt
follow 'the django way', but as i read at:
http://docs.nullpobug.com/django/trunk/django.core.files.uploadhandler-pysrc.html#FileUploadHandler.new_file
TemporaryFileUploadHandler subclass FileUploadHandler. The 'new_file'
method at FileUploadHandler saves
the file name at the class instance as 'file_name' (self.file_name). So, i
would try to overrite the 'file_complete'
method from my own class that subclass TemporaryFileUploadHandler and do
something like:
class MyTemporaryFileUploadHandler(TemporaryFileUploadHandler):
def file_complete(self, file_size):
if os.path.isfile(self.file_name):
os.unlink(self.file_name)
super(TemporaryFileUploadHandler, self).file_complete(file_size)
I'm not sure if self.file_name points to the temporary file, so maybe this
is not util.
