# model
db.define_table('doc',
Field('title','string'),
Field('filename','upload')
)
#controller
text_form=SQLFORM.factory(Field('text_in','text',db.doc))
file_form=SQLFORM.factory(db.doc)
...
if text_form.accepts(request.vars,formname='text_form'):
#insert data into the doc table
...
if file_form.accepts(request.vars,formname='file_form'):
# etc
The view has custom forms for both text_form and file_form.
The question is ... how to properly insert data into the doc table in
the case of the text_form? text_form.vars.text_in has the results of
textarea form field. These data are easily stored in an uploads/
file.txt file. The question is how to make the db.doc.filename field
point to the uploads/file.txt file such that it will be consistent
with a true file upload vs. a text field upload? Just inserting the
name of the uploads/file.txt into the db.doc.filename field isn't the
right way. (Hope this is clear enough.)
