Hi, Thanks for the hint, however, they only applies to tar archive file (give by path) and not to 'file objects' as you get from "file = self.cleaned_data['file']" in django models.
More specifically, how to make class tarfile to handle django.core.files.uploadedfile.InMemoryUploadedFile objects. Any help is always welcome.
