I'm fairly new to both Django and Python. This is my first time using forms and upload files with django. I can get the uploads and saves to the database to work fine but it fails to valid email or check if the users selected a file to upload. I've spent a lot of time reading documentation trying to figure this out. Thanks!
views.py
def submit_photo(request):
if request.method == 'POST':
def store_in_s3(filename, content):
conn = S3Connection(AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID, AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY)
bucket =
conn.create_bucket(AWS_STORAGE_BUCKET_NAME)
mime = mimetypes.guess_type(filename)[0]
k = Key(bucket)
k.key = filename
k.set_metadata("Content-Type", mime)
k.set_contents_from_file(content)
k.set_acl('public-read')
if imghdr.what(request.FILES['image_url']):
qw = request.FILES['image_url']
filename = qw.name
image = filename
content = qw.file
url = "http://bpd-public.s3.amazonaws.com/" + image
data = {image_url : url, user_email : request.POST['user_email'], user_twittername : request.POST['user_twittername'], user_website : request.POST['user_website'], user_desc : request.POST['user_desc']}
s = BeerPhotos(data)
if s.is_valid():
#import pdb; pdb.set_trace()
s.save()
store_in_s3(filename, content)
return HttpResponseRedirect(reverse('photos.views.thanks'))
return s.errors

return errors

form = BeerPhotoForm()
return render_to_response('photos/submit_photos.html', locals(),context_instance=RequestContext(request)
