I am making a simple DRF Login App which will let the user to upload a CSV
file and its description upon registration. It is working fine but when I
upload the file, it gives the error The submitted data was not a file.
Check the encoding type on the form..
I have searched around the internet but there are questions related to
only ImageField (that is image) not FileField. SO I was unable to solve the
issue.
My *Models.py* is:
*class Detail*(models.Model):
user = models.OneToOneField(User, on_delete=models.CASCADE)
file = models.FileField(verbose_name="CSV File", upload_to='csv_files')
file_desc = models.TextField("CSV File Description")
*def __str__*(self):
*return *("{} ({} {})".format(self.user.email,
self.user.first_name, self.user.last_name))
My *Serializers.py* is:
*class MainRegisterSerializer*(serializers.ModelSerializer):
*class Meta*:
model = User
fields = ('username', 'first_name', 'last_name', 'email',
'password')
*class RegisterSerializer*(serializers.ModelSerializer):
register = MainRegisterSerializer()
*class Meta*:
model = Detail
fields = ['register', 'file', 'file_desc']
optional_fields = ['file', 'file_desc']
extra_kwargs = {'password': {'write_only': True}}
*def create*(self, validated_data):
user =
User.objects.create_user(validated_data['register']['username'],
validated_data['register']['email'],
validated_data['register']['password'])
user.first_name = validated_data['register']['first_name']
user.last_name = validated_data['register']['last_name']
user.save()
detail = Detail(user=user, file=validated_data['file'],
file_desc=validated_data['file_desc'])
detail.save()
*return *user
My *Views.py* is:
*class RegisterAPI*(APIView):
renderer_classes = [TemplateHTMLRenderer]
template_name = 'accounts/register.html'
*def get*(self, request):
serializer = RegisterSerializer()
*return *Response({'serializer': serializer})
*def post*(self, request):
serializer = RegisterSerializer(data=request.data)
* if not* serializer.is_valid():
*return* Response({'serializer': serializer})
serializer.save()
*return *redirect('register')
My *template (register.html)* is:
*{% load rest_framework %}*
*<html>*
* <body>*
*<h1>*Register*</h1>*
*<form action="#" method="POST">*
{% csrf_token %}
{% render_form serializer %}
*<input type="submit" value="Save">*
* </form>*
* </body>*
*</html> *
I have tried a lot but I could not figure out what wrong I am doing. Any
help will surely be appreciated.
