Supposing one has a controller like this:
def mycustomstore(f, n, p):
print "file length", len(f.read())
print "file name", n
print "path", p
def index():
form = SQLFORM.factory(Field("myupload", "upload",
custom_store=mycustomstore))
if form.process().accepted:
pass
return dict(form=form)
Running in a welcome app and a linux machine with the rocket builtin server
(web2py Version 2.7.4-stable+timestamp.2013.10.19.17.40.27)
When one submits the form specifying a file, the form passes validation and
it is possible to store the file output elswhere or, for example use it as
custom field input for a custom db interface (which is the way I'd use such
code). Now, it seems that with this configuration, the upload feature does
not keep a copy of the file in the filesystem (not within the application
path afaik).
Is this the correct way of submitting file data without file storage with
web2py? I belive this feature is not documented. Would this also work on an
environment without write access to the file system (for example appengine)?
