Hi Russ,
My goal is to load the csv file directly in the database.
So my idea is define a script containing the follow pseudo-code:
while(1) and receive_csv():
value1, value2 = read_csv()
MyModel.objects.create(field1=value1, field2=value2)
The script run on the server, ex http://127.0.0.1:8000/admin
At this point it's possible using the script reported?
*import requestsurl = 'http://127.0.0.1:8000/admin'files = {'file':
open('log', 'rb')}r = requests.post(url, files=files)*
I don't understand where send the file respect the Django server.
Thanks very much.
SM
