#8918: FileField upload_to should not be required for custom backends ---------------------------------------------+------------------------------ Reporter: leahculver | Owner: nobody Status: new | Milestone: 1.3 Component: File uploads/storage | Version: SVN Resolution: | Keywords: FileField, files, upload, S3, upload_to Stage: Design decision needed | Has_patch: 1 Needs_docs: 0 | Needs_tests: 0 Needs_better_patch: 0 | ---------------------------------------------+------------------------------ Comment (by adamnelson):
I'm not sure if Django should stop the user from doing this, but dedicating an entire bucket to a FileField seems like a bad idea. Setting upload_to to any string creates a pseudo-folder on Amazon S3 at no cost except for extra characters in the URL. -- Ticket URL: <http://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/8918#comment:11> Django <http://code.djangoproject.com/> The Web framework for perfectionists with deadlines. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django updates" group.
