How to save multiple files (images) at the same time?
Hello! Please help me figure it out.
I'm trying to create a form where the user can create an article by uploading several images into the image field at once. Found the django-multiupload application , which gives you the ability to upload multiple files in one field at the same time. After selecting images, I press the submit button, but under the image field, a message is displayed: Field is empty and field is required
. Why is this message displayed if the image field is not empty?
Are there any good ready-made solutions (applications) for uploading multiple files (images) through one field at the same time?
models.py:
class Article(models.Model):
description = models.TextField(_('Description'))
class Image(models.Model):
article= models.ForeignKey(Article, on_delete=models.CASCADE)
image = models.FileField(_('Image'), upload_to='images/%Y/%m/%d/')
class ArticleForm(forms.ModelForm):
class Meta:
model = Article
fields = ('description', )
image = MultiFileField()
def save(self, commit=True):
instance = super(ArticleForm, self).save(commit)
for each in self.cleaned_data['image']:
Image.objects.create(image=each, article=instance)
return instance
def article_add(request):
data = dict()
if request.method == 'POST':
article_form = ArticleForm(request.POST, request.FILES)
if article_form.is_valid():
article = article_form.save(commit=False)
******
article.save()
data['form_is_valid'] = True
articles = Article.objects.all
context = {'articles': articles}
context.update(csrf(request))
data['html_article'] = render_to_string('project/article_list.html', context)
else:
data['form_is_valid'] = False
else:
article_form = ArticleForm()
context = {'article_form': article_form}
data['html_article_form'] = render_to_string('project/article_add.html', context, request=request)
return JsonResponse(data)
{% load widget_tweaks %}
<form method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data" action="{% url 'article_add' %}" class="article-add-form">
{% csrf_token %}
{% for field in article_form %}
<div class="form-group{% if field.errors %} has-danger{% endif %}">
<label class="form-control-label" for="{{ field.id_for_label }}">{{ field.label }}</label>
{% render_field field class="form-control" %}
{% for error in field.errors %}
<div class="form-control-feedback">{{ error }}</div>
{% endfor %}
</div>
{% endfor %}
<button type="submit">Submit</button>
</form>
$(function () {
var loadForm = function () {
var btn = $(this);
$.ajax({
url: btn.attr("data-url"),
type: 'get',
dataType: 'json',
beforeSend: function () {
$("#modal").modal("show");
},
success: function (data) {
$("#modal .modal-content").html(data.html_article_form);
}
});
};
var saveForm = function () {
var form = $(this);
var dataForm = new FormData(form);
$.ajax({
url: form.attr("action"),
data: form.serialize(),
type: form.attr("method"),
dataType: 'json',
success: function (data) {
if (dataForm.form_is_valid) {
$("#article-list").html(data.html_article);
$("#modal").modal("hide");
}
else {
$("#modal .modal-content").html(data.html_article_form);
}
}
});
return false;
};
// Create Article
$("#article-add-button").click(loadForm);
$("#modal").on("submit", ".js-article-add-form", saveForm);
// Update Article
$("#article-list").on("click", "#js-edit-article-button", loadForm);
$("#modal").on("submit", ".js-article-edit-form", saveForm);
});
