The temporary files created during file uploads
(tempfile.TemporaryFile instances) do not have names on all platforms,
you will have to create a new file and copy the data into it.
You can get a named temporary file out of the tempfile module
(tempfile.NamedTemporaryFile).
Something like this probably would work::
def upload_form(self, formfile):
import tempfile
import shutil
from pysqlite2 import dbapi2 as sqlite
newfile = tempfile.NamedTemporaryFile()
shutil.copyfileobj(formfile.file, newfile)
newfile.flush()
con = sqlite.connect(newfile.name)
