The documentation makes it appear very simple to get the contents of an uploaded file, but while I can do this with old_dev_appserver.py, I cannot get it with the current dev_appserver.py (v1.9.2).
Here's a simple example: <form name="myform" action="http://localhost:8080/sync?cmd=tester"; enctype="multipart/form-data" method="post"> Username: <input type="file" name="user_file" /> <input type="submit" value="Submit" /> </form> - In old_dev_appserver.py, one could get the file in GAE via self.request.get('user_file'), but not with dev_appserver.py - WebApp2 <http://webapp-improved.appspot.com/guide/request.html#files>says "Uploaded files are available as cgi.FieldStorage (see the cgi<http://docs.python.org/2.7/library/cgi.html#cgi> module) instances directly in request.POST." But, request.POST is empty, and cgi.FieldStorage() does not contain 'user_file' either. Strangely, if I print out self.request.params, I do see an element in the UnicodeMultiDict that is (u'user_file', FieldStorage(u'user_file', u'myfile.ico')). But when I try to get that element, either via named access or just iterating over params, I cannot get it. Even if I do a Len(self.request.params) I get one less than what I see, and the 'user_file' element is missing. If I do this with old_dev_appserver, the Len(self.request.params) is correct. How do I get user_file? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google App Engine" group.
