Hi! I have some troubles uploading large files via ajax and would be very happy if someone could help.
I use ajax to upload files to my django app via XHR - not Multipart Forms. When using this technique, django seems to not use the default FileUpload Handlers, so I do not have something like request.FILES in my view. Instead there is a request.raw_post_data containing the file contents. Now, as soon as I try to access the file content (access request.raw_post_data), django loads the whole blob into memory. While this might be okay to handle small files, I want to be able to upload large video files. I guess the best would be to use the existing django UploadHandler framework, so small files are automatically loaded into memory and large files to the disk. Also I would have access to the request.FILES object. However, I was not able to find a way to use django's UploadHandlers without sending the files via Multipart Form. Does anybody know how this can be achieved? Thanks in advance / F -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
