I have a function that uses the current date to set up a file path for uploaded images:

********************

def upload_path():
        dtnow = datetime.now(timezone.utc)
        dtstr = '{:%Y/%m/%d/%H/%M/%S}'.format(dtnow)
        print('dtstr: ')
        print(dtstr)
        dtstr = 'images/items/' + dtstr
        return dtstr

class Image(models.Model):
        item = models.ForeignKey(Item, on_delete=models.CASCADE)
        #file = ImageField(_('image'), upload_to='images')
        file = ImageField(_('image'), upload_to=upload_path())

********************

The problem is that when the Image class calls 'upload_path' the datetime portion of this is always the runserver initialisation time, rather than the time when 'upload_path' is called/used.

How to fix this?

Thanks
