I am building a Google App Engine App that lets users upload images; I have everything working fine, but I am struggling to find a way to ensure that the user does not upload an image too large (because I am resizing the images, so this crashes my python script). When a user uploads a large image, I get this error
RequestTooLargeError: The request to API call images.Transform() was too large.
I know that there is a size limitation on what GAE allows for it's image API, I am just trying to find a way to deal with this server side; something along the lines of
if (image is too large):
inform user
else:
proceed
I haven't had any luck finding the right python code to do this; can anyone help me out?
