How to update profile photo without using form?

Question

Django

I'm getting an image from an input and I want to update my profile photo in my views. How can I do this without using form, working exactly on the Profile object?

def profile_form(request):
  if request.method == 'POST':
    profile = Profile.objects.get(user=request.user)
    ...
    profile.save()
  return HttpResponseRedirect("/")

Answer 1

profile.photo = request.FILES['photo']
