Comment (by Claude Paroz):
Now that we have a [https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/2.0/ref/request-
response/#fileresponse-objects FileResponse] subclass, what about adding a
parameter to this subclass which would then set the `Content-Disposition`
header appropriately? Would that satisfy most use cases?
The [https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/2.0/howto/outputting-pdf/ PDF
output example] could be then rewritten as:
{{{
import io
from reportlab.pdfgen import canvas
from django.http import FileResponse
def some_view(request):
# Create a file-like buffer to receive PDF data
buffer = io.BytesIO()
# Create the PDF object, using the buffer as its "file."
p = canvas.Canvas(buffer)
# Draw things on the PDF. Here's where the PDF generation happens.
# See the ReportLab documentation for the full list of functionality.
p.drawString(100, 100, "Hello world.")
# Close the PDF object cleanly, and we're done.
p.showPage()
p.save()
return FileResponse(buffer, as_attachment=True,
filename="somefilename.pdf")
}}}
