Django multiple media root?

Question

Django

MEDIA_URL = '/media/'
MEDIA_ROOT = os.path.join(BASE_DIR, "media")
there is a /media folder
but there is also an images folder in the root
is it possible to set another media url in django?

Answer 1

This can be solved, for example, by writing your own FileStorage
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/files/
Something like this:

import os
from django.conf import settings
from django.db import models
from django.core.files.storage import FileSystemStorage

my_storage = FileSystemStorage(location=os.path.join(settings.BASE_DIR, 'image'))

class My_model(models.Model):
    file1 = models.FileField()                       # дефолтный MEDIA_ROOT
    image = models.FileField(storage=my_storage)     # пользовательский путь хранения
