Hmm... a little difficult seeing as Django parses the POST contents
into a string first, so it has probably done irreversible things to
it.

There is HttpRequest.raw_post_data though, but not sure what format
that is in. If it is just bytes, you could just stream that to
wherever you need it to be.

There is no form, it's entirely Javascript.
Spoke to the creator of the script, who has popped up script examples
for PHP and ColdFusion he reckons:

"You basically have to put the whole post contents into a file."

Not altogether helpful, eh?

Re: Upload a File using the request.POST data

2010-09-26 Thread Sam Lai 
Have you got the right attribute in the form?

>From http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/http/file-uploads/

"Note that request.FILES will only contain data if the request method
was POST and the  that posted the request has the attribute
enctype="multipart/form-data". Otherwise, request.FILES will be
empty."

Re: Upload a File using the request.POST data

Can it even be done?
It seems pretty ordinary but everything I'm trying expects it to be a
request.FILE.

Frustrating stuff.

Upload a File using the request.POST data

2010-09-26 Thread Danny Bos 
Heya,

I'm using the 'Valums File Uploader' which passes the file in the
request.POST as you can see below. I'm wondering how to get that data
into an actual file. Any ideas would be great as things like "for
chunk in f.chunks()" only works on request.FILES which in this case is
empty.

Thanks,
Hope all is well your side of the planet.

Eg DATA:

GET:,
POST:http://groups.google.com/group/django-users?hl=en.
