Hi, Short answer is: use web2py :-)
I've had similar issue some time ago with collection of pictures. I defined function (say 'movePictures') which iterate through all pictures in source directory (other then 'uploads') and used web2py DAL to insert them into database (and uploads directory) and to link them with other tables. In that way all files were copied to uploads with their names changed to uuid automaticaly and I didn't have to worry about how to name them. Then I just execute function from browser: [appname]/[controler]/ movePictures and that's it. Hope it will help, regards, Lukasz -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "web2py-users" group. To post to this group, send email to web...@googlegroups.com.
