django rest fileupload with link returned

Question

I was searching through stackoverflow for example of working fileupload APIView (using DRF of latest versions), I've already tried with many different code samples but none worked (some of them are deprecated, some - isn't what i want)

I have these models:

class Attachment(models.Model): type = models.CharField(max_length=15, null=False) attachment_id = models.CharField(max_length=50, primary_key=True) doc = models.FileField(upload_to="docs/", blank=True)

I don't wanna use forms and anything else but rest parsers I want to get POST'ed fields (for example name) in future

I believe the solution is easy but this doesnt work

class FileUploadView(APIView): parser_classes = (FileUploadParser,) def post(self, request): file_obj = request.FILES doc = Attachment.objects.create(type="doc", attachment_id=time.time()) doc.doc = file_obj doc.save() return Response({'file_id': doc.attachment_id}, status=204)

@JoranBeasley in current example it says AttributeError at /file_upload/ 'dict' object has no attribute '_committed' — Chickenfresh

im posting file with header Content-Disposition: file; filename="test", the problem appears after .save() - I simply cant save file — Chickenfresh

files is a dict ... perhaps you want request.FILES['my_file'] — Joran Beasley

@JoranBeasley okay, then it writes with no file extension or broken — Chickenfresh

removing parser_class will solve almost all problems here. Try the following snippet

class FileUploadView(APIView): def post(self, request): file = request.FILES['filename'] attachment = Attachment.objects.create(type="doc", attachment_id=time.time(), doc=file) return Response({'file_id': attachment.attachment_id}, status=204)
