I'm serving rather large, static files through Django. I'd rather not use renaming trickery to serve them, but I don't know what the best way to serve them through HttpResponse is. I used to use this:
response = HttpResponse(iter(open(file_path, "rb"))) return response in my view. That stopped working in the previous week or two. I'm not sure why, exactly. Is this method no longer supported? I am not even sure if it is doing what I hoped it was doing. =) The only other option I see to serving large files securely is trickery using dynamically created sym links to the true static file and then redirecting the user to those URLs and letting Apache serve them. This isn't as secure, though, and permits multiple downloads without them being recorded in my Django apps. The files range in size from a few hundred KB up through about 50 MB, mostly hefty print-ready PDFs. Any suggestions? --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
