I'm trying to use the below library to implement multi upload in my Django proejct.
https://github.com/Chive/django-multiupload
boutique/models.py
class Photo(models.Model):
store = models.ForeignKey(Store)
photo = models.FileField(null=True, blank=True, upload_to='boutique/index/%Y/%m/%d')
url = models.CharField(max_length=40, null=True, blank=True, verbose_name='Image URL')
created_at = models.DateTimeField(auto_now_add=True)
def __unicode__(self):
return str(self.photo)
def get_absolute_url(self):
return reverse('cms:photo_edit', args=[self.pk])
cms/forms.py
from django import forms
from boutique.models import Photo
from multiupload.fields import MultiFileField
class PhotoCreateForm(forms.ModelForm):
class Meta:
model = Photo
fields = ['store']
attachments = MultiFileField(min_num=1, max_num=3, max_file_size=1024*1024*5)
cms/views.py
class PhotoCreateView(FormView):
model=Photo
template_name='cms/photo_new.html'
form_class = PhotoCreateForm
success_url=reverse_lazy('cms:photo')
queryset = Photo.objects.all()
def form_valid(self, form):
for each in form.cleaned_data['attachments']:
Attachment.objects.create(file=each)
return super(PhotoCreateView, self).form_valid(form)
cms/photo_new.html
{% extends 'cms/base.html' %}
{% load staticfiles %}
{% block page-header %}Add Photo{% endblock %}
{% block content %}
<form action="" method="post">
{% csrf_token %}
<table class="table table-hover store-form">
{{ form.as_table }}
</table>
<input class="btn btn-success btn-block" type="submit" name="" value="Submit">
<br>
</form>
{% endblock %}
FYI, I'm not using Django default admin, but my own customized admin, which is the app named cms
. I'm also using models in the app named boutique
.
When I upload photos, nothing happens and the page doesn't even move to the success url. After submitting the files, the file input field just says "Thie field is required"
, and I don't see any uploads on the database.
Is there something wrong on my codes?
Your Model name is Photo, then why you try to save photos at Attachment Model!
cms/views.py
class PhotoCreateView(FormView):
model=Photo
template_name='cms/photo_new.html'
form_class = PhotoCreateForm
success_url=reverse_lazy('cms:photo')
queryset = Photo.objects.all()
def form_valid(self, form):
for each in form.cleaned_data['attachments']:
Photo.objects.create(photo=each)
return super(PhotoCreateView, self).form_valid(form)
If you want to upload any file or image then you need to add enctype="multipart/form-data" to your HTML form.
cms/photo_new.html
{% extends 'cms/base.html' %}
{% load staticfiles %}
{% block page-header %}Add Photo{% endblock %}
{% block content %}
<form action="" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data">
{% csrf_token %}
<table class="table table-hover store-form">
{{ form.as_table }}
</table>
<input class="btn btn-success btn-block" type="submit" name="" value="Submit">
<br>
</form>
{% endblock %}
Update this two file. hopefully, it'll work. If not then let me know.
