Re: my file uploads missing/deleted

[omar ahmed]

ok i did all steps but it still doesn't work .. this is my settings.py file 
:
PROJECT_ROOT = os.path.dirname(os.path.abspath(__file__))
STATIC_URL = '/static/'
STATIC_ROOT = os.path.join(PROJECT_ROOT, 'static')
STATICFILES_STORAGE = 
'whitenoise.storage.CompressedManifestStaticFilesStorage'

DEFAULT_FILE_STORAGE = 'storages.backends.dropbox.DropBoxStorage'
DROPBOX_OAUTH2_TOKEN = 
'hSRexFBHo-AAWVBZOhZJo6jrIP3NgMK0L_7aWHkb0mJs-z4IWO6b_EBk'
DROPBOX_ROOT_PATH = '/arenaimages/'

and this is admin.py :
from django.contrib import admin
from imagekit.admin import AdminThumbnail
from .models import MapData
# Register your models here.

from .models import League, LeagueNews, Comment, Club, Match
admin.site.register(League)
admin.site.register(LeagueNews)
admin.site.register(Comment)

class ClubAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
fields = ['league_names', 'name', 'year_of_establishment', 'logo', 'won', 
'draw', 'lost', 'total_points', 'goal_for', 'goal_against', 'goal_diff']
logo = AdminThumbnail(image_field='image')
readonly_fields = ('total_points', 'goal_diff',)

admin.site.register(Club, ClubAdmin)
admin.site.register(Match)
thanks joe

Re: my file uploads missing/deleted

[Joe Reitman]

Yes. Generate an access token from your Dropbox App Console and put it in 
your settings.py. The token is used to authenticate your Django app with 
your Dropbox app.

DROPBOX_ROOT_PATH is the folder in your Dropbox App where you want to store 
your photos. You need to define it with this variable in settings.py.
 Typically I call it 'images' like this:  
DROPBOX_ROOT_PATH = '/images/'

Re: my file uploads missing/deleted

[Joe Reitman]

Omar, 

You should not be configuring views for Dropbox. DJANGO-STORAGES does all 
the back end coding for you.

Follow these steps from DJANGO-STORAGES documentation after removing the 
code changes you made to views. I'm assuming your using pip.

1. pip install django-storages
2. pip install dropbox
3. In your settings.py set these variables
DEFAULT_FILE_STORAGE = 'storages.backends.dropbox.DropBoxStorage'
DROPBOX_OAUTH2_TOKEN = your token from dropbox
DROPBOX_ROOT_PATH = your root path to store media
FROM THE DROPBOX DOCUMENTATION TUTORIAL YOU ONLY NEED TO REGISTER YOUR APP 
AND GENERATE YOUR OAUTH2 TOKEN. DISREGARD THE 'LINK YOUR ACCOUNT'. DJANGO 
STORAGES DOES THAT FOR YOU.

4. pip install django-imagekit and add it to your settings.py 'installed 
apps' -read the docs <https://django-imagekit.readthedocs.io/en/latest/> on 
this one

Now you need to have an imagefield in your model and config your admin.py 
as I explained earlier. 
I highly recommend creating an app to do this functionality. Call it 
something like 'logo upload'. Django best practices says an app does one 
thing and does it well.

When you run the server does it give you any errors?

This python package may be a better choice for you, since I assume you want

This has pretty good documentation.
https://pypi.org/project/django-dropbox-storage/

If you use this package, remove the sample code I sent

Re: my file uploads missing/deleted

[omar ahmed]

i added this function at the end of views.py file 
def connect_to_dropbox():
dbx = dropbox.Dropbox(‘your access token)
dbx.users_get_current_account()
and i put given access token from dropbox
then what about call
do you mean in any view function that will show page included images add  
connect_to_dropbox()
and what about 

for entry in dbx.files_list_folder('').entries:
print(entry.name)

Re: my file uploads missing/deleted

[James Farris]

You would add this code to the views.py file, which is where the business
logic goes.

https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/2.2/topics/http/views/

Likely would add a class with properties and methods or a definition (a
function) like below:

For example in your apps views.py file:

def connect_to_dropbox():
dbx = dropbox.Dropbox(‘your access token)
dbx.users_get_current_account()

# this stuff likely would go in a separate function
for entry in dbx.files_list_folder(‘’).entries:
print(entry.name)


At some point in your code you would call the function:
connect_to_dropbox()

Re: my file uploads missing/deleted

[Joe Reitman]

Omar,

To upload images from the Admin panel, you will have to configure your 
apps' admin.py file. I use the django-imagekit package to manipulate user 
uploaded images. This package also provides the ability to upload images 
via the Admin panel with a couple lines of code. Here is my Admin.py code. 

from django.contrib import admin
from imagekit.admin import AdminThumbnail
from .models import MapData


class PhotoAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):

 list_display = ('__str__', 'admin_thumbnail')
 admin_thumbnail = AdminThumbnail(image_field='image')


admin.site.register(MapData, PhotoAdmin) 



It displays thumbnails of all the images stored in my database and presents 
them in a list view in the Admin panel alongside the other model data.

You might try the docs from Dropbox

Re: my file uploads missing/deleted

[James Farris]

He is saying these aren’t static files. It sounds like he uploads them using 
the Django admin, which of course is like an end user on a client uploading 
files to the media directory. 

Since that is the case it sounds like the Dropbox option is the best. 
Documentation was provided earlier. So being that it seems like he read through 
the documentation, my question is where is he stuck in the Dropbox 
implementation?

Omar,

You need to put the image in your 'static' files directory.

Re: my file uploads missing/deleted

[omar ahmed]

almost i did all of these instructions 
collectstatic - DEBUG = True  - install and use whitenoise in my app 
the problem is heroku is ephemeral ( that's mean image clubs appear and 
after one hour it disappear )
i want to use something like Dropbox (permenant) but i don't know how to  
make it my media folder

Re: my file uploads missing/deleted

[omar ahmed]

hiii Sagar ..
what is your Error ?
i followed this tutorial 
https://medium.com/@BennettGarner/deploying-django-to-heroku-procfile-static-root-other-pitfalls-e7ab8b2ba33b
if you want to connect heroku postgres continue with this 
https://medium.com/@BennettGarner/deploying-django-to-heroku-connecting-heroku-postgres-fcc960d290d1
start by the first article and don't forget to use suitable version of 
python 
if you have errors just type 
heroku logs -tail
good luck

Re: my file uploads missing/deleted

[Joe Reitman]

A couple of things to check.

1. Is the photo located in directory above?
2. Did you run collectstatic?
3. In your settings.py are STATIC_ROOT, STATIC_URLS and STATICFILES_DIRS 
configured
4. In your template you have setup like this example:

{% load static %}


Also, it looks like you have DEBUG set to True. When DEBUG is set to True, 
Django will use it's development static file server to serve static files. 
However, setting DEBUG true in production is not recommended. 

Note that when you set DEBUG to False, the Django static file server is 
disabled. Hence the need to host static files on a CDN *or* using a static 
file server like Whitenoise. You can serve static files within your Django 
app using Whitenoise <http://whitenoise.evans.io/en/stable/> and is 
recommended by Heroku 
<https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/django-assets#whitenoise>. The other 
option is to serve static files from external sources.

If you only have one photo, you can do what I suggested using codepen.io or 
surge.sh or almost any other remote storage that allows you to 'hotlink' 
<https://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hotlinking> image files.

Re: my file uploads missing/deleted

[Joe Reitman]

Omar,

Looking at your original request I misunderstood what you wanted to do. I 
thought you wanted to configure media files which are uploaded by the user. 

For static files you have many free options to store them and put the links 
in your img tags. If you have a codepen.io account, you can upload your 
images to codepen and use the links generated by codepen. Another option is 
to install surge.sh and upload images to a surge static site and then use 
the links to the images. If that makes sense.

I have used both options to store my static files in various projects. 
These options are good for testing and development.

I use Dropbox which is free up to 2GB. I installed django-storages library 
to make setting up Dropbox easy.
