I am trying to process some text files and feed the result directly into a
django model using create(). As so often seems to happen with me, this
turns out to not be as simple as I thought it would be. Specifically, I
can’t seem to get any data into ‘clock’, the time field in my model. When I
tried making the input data a string, it rejected it. When I tried making
it a function, it told me it was expecting a string, and no version of int,
float, or decimal got past Pylint. What is the right way to get this done,
or do I need to do direct db inserts instead? Here is my code. Thanks.
As a string ***
from io import TextIOBase
from os import environ
import textract
import django
environ['DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE'] = 'chronicle.settings'
django.setup()
from ktab.models import Entry
text = textract.process('/home/malikarumi/010417_odt_tests/2018-01-01
psycopg2-error-at-or-near.odt', encoding='utf_8')
b = TextIOBase(text)
b.write(Entry.objects.create(
title='2018-01-01 psycopg2-error-at-or-near', content=b,
chron_date='2018-01-05',
clock='23:59:59'))
b.save()
