I have checked several other threads but I am still having a problem. I have a model that includes a FileField and I am generating semi-random instances for various purposes. However, I am having a problem uploading the files.
When I create a new file, it appears to work (the new instance is saved to the database), a file is created in the appropriate directory, but the file's content is missing or corrupt.
Here is the relevant code:
class UploadedFile(models.Model):
document = models.FileField(upload_to=PATH)
from django.core.files import File
doc = UploadedFile()
with open(filepath, 'wb+') as doc_file:
doc.documen.save(filename, File(doc_file), save=True)
doc.save()
Thank you!
Could it be as simple as the opening of the file. Since you opened the file in 'wb+' (write, binary, append) the handle is at the end of the file. try:
class UploadedFile(models.Model):
document = models.FileField(upload_to=PATH)
from django.core.files import File
doc = UploadedFile()
with open(filepath, 'rb') as doc_file:
doc.document.save(filename, File(doc_file), save=True)
doc.save()
Now its open at the beginning of the file.
