AttributeError : type object '_io.StringIO' has no attribute 'StringIO'


In my model I want to format the imagefield by overridding the save method

I have done this in my model

from PIL import Image as Img
from io import StringIO
from django.core.files.uploadedfile import InMemoryUploadedFile


class Blog(models.Model):
    Blog_image= models.ImageField(upload_to="...", blank=True)

    def save(self, *args, **kwargs):
    if self.Blog_image:
        image = Img.open(StringIO.StringIO(self.Blog_image.read()))
        image.thumbnail((900,300), Img.ANTIALIAS)
        output = StringIO.StringIO()
        image.save(output, format='JPEG', quality=150)
        output.seek(0)
        self.Blog_image = InMemoryUploadedFile(output,'ImageField', "%s.jpg" %self.Blog_image.name, 'image/jpeg', output.len, None)
    super(Blog, self).save(*args, **kwargs)

But getting this Attribute error

AttributeError : type object '_io.StringIO' has no attribute 'StringIO'

Can anyone explain me why I am getting this error???

My python version is 3.6.4

My Django version is 2.0.7


Solution

  • Got the solution This works on Python 3.6.2 but I don't know where it was saved and from what folder it calls:

    from PIL import Image
    from io import BytesIO
    from django.core.files.uploadedfile import InMemoryUploadedFile
    import sys
    
        def save(self, *args, **kwargs):
        imageTemproary = Image.open(self.Blog_image)
        outputIoStream = BytesIO()
        imageTemproaryResized = imageTemproary.resize( (900,300) ) 
        imageTemproaryResized.save(outputIoStream , format='JPEG', quality=150)
        outputIoStream.seek(0)
        self.Blog_image = InMemoryUploadedFile(outputIoStream,'ImageField', "%s.jpg" %self.Blog_image.name.split('.')[0], 'image/jpeg', sys.getsizeof(outputIoStream), None)
        super(Blog, self).save(*args, **kwargs)
    

    Done it using BytesIO and it worked fine
