Re: File sharing service on Django?
Well, that's what I intended to do - a least I would know a file is
started to download.
Problem is - way of file transfer. I got something like:
response = HttpResponse(open('/way/to/file/test.rar'),
mimetype='application/x-rar-compressed')
response['Content-Disposition'] = 'attachment;
filename=archive.rar'
return response
and it works fine on my desktop, but I don't know how it will go on
server with large files.

Re: File sharing service on Django?
Hi Artem, I don't know about it specifically but I have one possible solution. That may not be what you want and I'd like to hear critique on it: Have a model with fields id (or url or slug), status and filename (and more if you wish). This could be filled with: id=42, status=no_downloads_yet, filename="pictures.zip" Create urls that point to a view. Like this: www.mypage.foo/download/42 A view would be called in which the status is tested and if appropriate the file is returned. The status should then be changed. (Shortcoming: I don't know off-hand how to test whether a download was completed or dropped or the like.) Comments welcome!

File sharing service on Django?
Is there any painless way to make Django able to serve files with one- time urls, like in RapidShare? First thought - use django.views.static.serve with some tweeks. But is there a way to track status of download (dropped\complited)? Thanks -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
