I'm new to django and not sure how to do this, is this remotely close?
class Listing(models.Model):
user = models.ForeignKey(User, unique=True)
zipfile = models.FileField(upload_to='listings')
name = models.CharField(max_length=50)
order = models.ForeignKey('Order')
def save(self, user=user):
user_dir_path = os.path.join(settings.MEDIA_ROOT, 'listings',
user)
zipfile.upload_to=user_dir_path
def __unicode__(self):
return self.name
