Django REST Framework image upload

Question

I have model Product:

def productFile(instance, filename):
    return \'/\'.join( [\'products\', str(instance.id), filename] )

class Product(models.Model):         


        

Answer 1

you can create separate endpoint for uploading images, it would be like that:

class ProductViewSet(BaseViewSet, viewsets.ModelViewSet):
    queryset = Product.objects.all()
    serializer_class = ProductSerializer

    @detail_route(methods=['post'])
    def upload_docs(request):
        try:
            file = request.data['file']
        except KeyError:
            raise ParseError('Request has no resource file attached')
        product = Product.objects.create(image=file, ....)

you can go around that solution

-- update: this's how to upload from postman
