I want to expose a method which will accept a file POSTed to it and save the file to the database. I have found php examples all over the place (one below).
How do i do this in web2py? I don't want to use a form as I don't want to upload interactively. My model is this: db.define_table('uploadedFiles', Field('displayName'), Field('store_file','upload',autodelete=True)) Thanks in advance Brendan Example php: <input type="submit" value="Upload File" /> </form> <?php $to_file = "tmp/" . basename($_FILES['uploadedfile']['name']); $from_file = $_FILES['uploadedfile']['tmp_name']; if (move_uploaded_file($from_file, $to_file)) { echo "Successful upload"; ?> <a href="<?php echo $to_file;?>"><?php echo $to_file;?></a> <?php } else { echo "Unsuccessful upload"; } ?>
