Here is way to upload file by MultiPart through django-tastypie.
Models.py
class Video(models.Model):
video_uploader = models.ForeignKey(User)
video = models.FileField(_('Video'), upload_to='path_to_folder/') # save file to server
video_views = models.IntegerField(default=0)
upload_date = models.DateTimeField(auto_now_add=True)
video_description = models.CharField(max_length=860)
video_title = models.SlugField()
Api.py
class MultipartResource(object):
def deserialize(self, request, data, format=None):
if not format:
format = request.META.get('CONTENT_TYPE', 'application/json')
if format == 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded':
return request.POST
if format.startswith('multipart'):
data = request.POST.copy()
data.update(request.FILES)
return data
return super(MultipartResource, self).deserialize(request, data, format)
class VideoResource(MultipartResource, ModelResource):
"""
Inherit this Resource class to `MultipartResource` Class
"""
# Assuming you know what to write here
...
And then through CURL
curl -H "Authorization: ApiKey username:api_key" -F "video=/path_to_video/video.mp3" -F "video_title=video title" http://localhost:8000/api/v1/video/ -v
