Hi All,
I'm new to Django and I'm not sure how best to achieve the following:
Users may upload files - each uploaded file is tied to a user in the
database using a ForeignKey.
In order to prevent pain to the underlying O/S I don't want to put all
these files in to a single directory. I could separate the files by
upload time as mentioned in the Django documentation, but it would be
nicer to have all the files uploaded by a single user under a single
subdirectory.
Example:
Greg uploads "holiday.rtf", it is saved as /media/uploads/greg/
holiday.rtf
Sally uploads "family.rtf", it is saved as /media/uploads/sally/
family.rtf
My current model:
class FileModel(models.Model):
user = models.ForeignKey(User)
file = models.FileField(upload_to = 'uploads/'
I am saving the file using FileModel_Instance.save_file_file('path',
file_contents). Adding extra folders to the path (i.e. path = greg/
holiday.rtf) doesn't work - I assume this is a security restriction.
I am using the SVN version of Django. Any help would be appreciated.
Regards,
James
