For what it is worth, here is some of the documentation I’ve been working with.
I’ve referred to official Django docs for: - File uploads: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/2.2/topics/http/file-uploads/ - Form handling with class-based views: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/2.1/topics/class-based-views/generic-editing/ - HttpRequest.FILES: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/2.2/ref/request-response/#django.http.HttpRequest.FILES Stack Overflow questions I’ve used: - What does the if __name__ == "__main__": do? https://stackoverflow.com/questions/419163/what-does-if-name-main-do - reverse for success_url on Django Class Based View complain about circular import https://stackoverflow.com/questions/31275574/reverse-for-success-url-on-django-class-based-view-complain-about-circular-impor - How can I get uploaded text file in view through Django? https://stackoverflow.com/questions/39436612/how-can-i-get-uploaded-text-file-in-view-through-django - How can i get the file name from request.FILES? https://stackoverflow.com/questions/3111779/how-can-i-get-the-file-name-from-request-files - How to reverse_lazy to a view/url with variable? https://stackoverflow.com/questions/46184193/how-to-reverse-lazy-to-a-view-url-with-variable On Wednesday, July 10, 2019 at 1:13:16 PM UTC-4, drone4four wrote: > > I’ve got a Python script which counts and prints the number of words in a > text file.
