Hi django-users
I try to figure out how to upload files using django.
I have two models which are involved here:
Post, which has a user and content.
Attachment, which has a filefield (attachment), a user and a FK to Post.
This is how it should work:
Step 1:
The form is displayed with all fields
If user clicks on 'add attachment button' go to step 2
If user clicks on 'submit' button go to stop 4
Step 2:
Check if a file is submitted
Check user file size and count quota
Check file for viri with pyclamav
Check file size
Check file type
If all checks are positive, go to step 3
Else show an error page and go to step 1
Step 3:
Save the newly uploaded file to the Attachment model
Go to Step 1 and display the uploaded attachments (not as part of
the form)
Step 4:
The rest of the form is saved to the Post model
The currently orphaned attachments get linked to the created Post model
Display a success page
The step where I have problems is step 3. After checking the file
content using pyclamav I tried to store the data in the attachment model
using: Attachment(owner=request.user, attachment=data) where data is the
file content. This saved correctly with no errors but the file path (eg
attachment.url) doesn't point to the upload_to folder (it points to the
root media folder) and the file wasn't created. How could I do that?
