Python SDK Image Reference

upload (req, fileRoute, options)

Returns: Dictionary

Method used to upload image to the specified location on disk.

Parameters:


  • req

    The Python SDK contains 3 adapters (Django, Flask and Pyramid) and you can create your custom adapter by implementing BaseAdapter class:

    # Django adapter example.
    
    from froala_editor import BaseAdapter
    
    class DjangoAdapter(BaseAdapter):
    """
    Django Adapter: Check BaseAdapter to see what methods description.
    """
    
    def checkFile(self, fieldname):
      if fieldname not in self.request.FILES:
        raise Exception("File does not exist.")
    
    def getFilename(self, fieldname):
      self.checkFile(fieldname)
      return self.request.FILES[fieldname].name
    
    def getMimetype(self, fieldname):
      self.checkFile(fieldname)
      return self.request.FILES[fieldname].content_type
    
    def saveFile(self, fieldname, fullNamePath):
      self.checkFile(fieldname)
    
      with open(fullNamePath, 'wb+') as destination:
        for chunk in self.request.FILES[fieldname].chunks():
            destination.write(chunk)
    
    You should override all methods from BaseAdapter
