Massimo,
I am finally getting around to implementing upload fields that store the
actual uploaded file in Rackspace Cloud Files instead of in the local
filesystem or in the database. Thank you for adding custom_retrieve to
Field in 1.92.
I will need custom_delete, too, of course. (Sorry for not realizing it
before.) I read through DAL.py in preparation for implementing
custom_delete and was surprised to see that Field handles store and
retrieve but Set handles delete. It seems to me that Set ought to
delegate the actual deletion to Field but I am new to your code so
perhaps I am missing something.
I am inclined to write Field.delete() and update
Set.delete_uploaded_files() to call Field.delete(). This will allow me
to neatly implement custom_delete within Field. And, of course, I will
send the code back to you.
I would very much appreciate your thoughts. And if you think that I
should move this to web2py-developers, just say the word.
Thanks,
-- Art Z.
