I am trying to write a view that will take a file uploaded via form,
pass it to an ftp method and save it on an ftp server. However I am
running into problems when with the file object that gets passed to
the ftp method.
This is my view:
def order_prints(request, object_id):
p = get_object_or_404(Project, pk=object_id)
d = datetime.now()
def ftp_upload(file, ftp):
CONTENT_TYPES = ['text']
t = file.content_type.split('/')[0]
if t in CONTENT_TYPES:
ftp.storlines("STOR", file, open(file))
else:
ftp.storbinary("STOR", file, open(file, "rb"), 1024)
if not request.method =="POST":
form = ReproOrderForm()
return render_to_response(
'projects/printorderform.html',
{'form': form, "p": p},
context_instance = RequestContext(request, object_id),
)
form = ReproOrderForm(request.POST, request.FILES)
if not form.is_valid():
pass
if form.is_valid():
file = request.FILES["file"]
filename = file.name
description = request.POST["description"]
delivery = request.POST["delivery"]
reprofirm = request.POST["reprofirm"]
due_by = request.POST["due_by"]
rf = ReproFirm.objects.get(id=reprofirm)
ftp = ftplib.FTP(rf.ftp_server, rf.ftp_username,
rf.ftp_password)
ftp_upload(file, ftp)
f = ReproOrder(project=p, user=request.user, filename=filename,
reprofirm=reprofirm, due_by=due_by,
pub_date=datetime.now())
f.save()
ftp.quit()
return HttpResponseRedirect('/projects/%s/' % object_id)
So when I run this, I get:
Exception Value: coercing to Unicode: need string or buffer,
InMemoryUploadedFile found
Which leads me to believe that I need to modify the file object before
I pass it to the ftp method. Unfortunately, I am stuck. Any pointers?
