Re: [Zope] Uploading files
Hi Tino. I was reading this and I was looking at incorporating some kind of response to users while processing a time consuming script. I was thinking about just putting up an animated gif that says 'Processing' (or something similar or to send some text advising where they are in the processing). I am trying to understand what you are saying about the return. If at the end of the process you did something like a return or redirect will this not work properly? Is there a script example that you can point me to that demonstrates a context.REQUEST.RESPONSE.write() admidst processing somewhere to provide feedback while processing. Many thanks.

On that topic: I've got my file upload working properly (it forwards the file data to an external site, then saves only if validation works). But I just started to wonder about something; all my tests have been with relatively small files (~40KB) but my end users may be uploading some very large files (possibly as large as 500KB, although not for months). In my python script I use: filedata = container.REQUEST.file.read() then merge this data into a MIME submission for the external web site, and on success, save it locally as a file. My question is -- aside from memory usage, what problems might there be with this approach? Will the read() return all the content, or is there a possibility that it will return less than the full file contents? Any timeout issues that I should consider? Of course does read() return all the data in one string - the python documentation leaves no doubt here. You might consider reading in chunks, encoding them while you send and if validation is successfull, rewind by file.seek(0) and then manage_addFile() directly with the file object. Timeout can be an issue with large files and when the remote server is slow. In this case, you can send some data to the clients browser while you work, via context.REQUEST.RESPONSE.write() Note: once you start using response.write() you cannot use return() in your script - at least the user wont see any output from it.

Look at the upload code and check whether you need the "getUserById".

[Zope] Uploading files
I'm trying to write a replacement form which allows users to upload images into a folder. I'm almost there, but not quite. I'm having difficulties getting the file contents into the database. I have an input type="file" field, and I'm fairly sure that the data is being sent. When I create the Image however, I use file=REQUEST['file'], and the resulting image stores the path to the file, instead of the file contents. So, given that I've uploaded a file, and that its name is in REQUEST['file'], how do I get at its contents when creating the Image? ___ Zope maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev )
