Hi!
I have a SQLFORM with some filelds and an image (like example here:
http://web2py.com/books/default/chapter/29/07/forms-and-validators#SQLFORM).
I have to populate the database using a python script. So I made a generic
restful api:
@request.restful()
def api():
response.view = 'generic.'+request.extension
def GET(*args,**vars):
patterns = [':auto[products]',
'/products/code/{products.code}',
'/products/code/{products.code}/:field',
'/products/image_filename/{products.image_filename}',
'/products/image_filename/{products.image_filename}/:field',
]
parser = db.parse_as_rest(patterns,args,vars)
if parser.status == 200:
return dict(content=parser.response)
else:
raise HTTP(parser.status,parser.error)
def POST(table_name,**vars):
return db[table_name].validate_and_insert(**vars)
def PUT(table_name,record_id,**vars):
return db(db[table_name]._id==record_id).validate_and_update(**vars)
def DELETE(table_name,record_id):
return db(db[table_name]._id==record_id).delete()
return dict(GET=GET, POST=POST, PUT=PUT, DELETE=DELETE)
On python script I use requests.post and genercs fields are ok.
I used sintax from here (
http://docs.python-requests.org/en/latest/user/quickstart/#post-a-multipart-encoded-file
). </>
This upload generally work but I have a big problem:
uploading file from browser I find on DB the encoded name of file, and dhe
file on filesystem.
Uploading from restful I find on db, instead of encoded file name, this:
'FieldStorage(''image'', ''test_image.jpg'', ''...binary data of image'')'
What's the correct way to upload a file using restful api?
