(my apologies if you already saw this question on django-developers, I'm reposting here because it's more a users question)
I was wondering if anyone else on the list has layered a RESTful service into their django applications. I'm adding an atompub interface to an existing django project, and I'd like to offer the ability to POST and PUT to URIs. Part of my problem is that this service needs to handle large (many megabyte) file uploads, so the POST and PUT message body needs to be streamed to disk, rather than held in memory. I took a look at the FileUpload functionality in django.http.HttpRequest and django.http.multipartparser.MultiPartParser, and it looked like I could slot in custom handlers as long as the content was POSTed with a mimetype of "multipart/form-data". Unfortunately I am wanting to allow clients to POST and PUT arbitrary content (application/zip, application/atom+xml, etc). At the moment I'm rolling my own code to read from request.environ ['wsgi.input'] but I'm worried that I'm not handling everything correctly, and am wondering if there exists middleware for handling this sort of scenario in a cleaner way. Or perhaps there's a more django-y way of doing it? Any info/pointers/tips would be appreciated. //Ed --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
