Hi, I have a fairly standard model:
class MediaObject(models.Model): """ An instance of a MediaItem """ name = models.CharField(max_length=256) path = models.FileField(_("File"), max_length=256, upload_to='tempUpload/') And thats all well and good, my uploads work and so on. But what I currently do is I upload to a temporary directory (as shown above), then the upload triggers some processing on the file. Then I want to move the file. Before the process actually modified the database directly, updating the path to a new location. But we don't want to do that anymore as I want to provide a RESTapi to update the location of the file. I have read through: http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/files/#topics-files But seeing as Django uses the python File type it seems that I can't update the path? Is there a method of moving the file or the path? I would prefer not to read in the file into memory if possible (my files can be Gb's in size). The only way I thought of getting around this limitation is to provide the RESTApi but just use raw SQL instead and update the location. Though I think that should be the last resort. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
