A mongo GridFS storage backend for django.
Project description
A helper app for using MongoDB’s GridFS as a storage backend for django.
mongo_storage contents include:
- models.py
MongoFileModel: a model mixin creating a MongoFileField called content
MongoDeleteFileModel: a model mixin that will delete the underlying file when the model is deleted
- fields.py
MongoFileField: a custom file field that gives you access to the file name through a ‘file_name’ property. Useful because the GridFSStorage makes Django store the MongoDB ObjectId instead of the file name.
- storage.py
GridFSStorage: the Django storage module to interact with the pymongo, MongoDB’s python adapters
- admin.py
MongoFileAdminMixin: gives the ModelAdmin access to the stored file’s file name and file size.
DeleteActionMixin: allows ModelAdmin to call the delete method on each model being deleted (so the underlying file will be delete also) when deleting items in bulk.
- Dependencies:
mongodb Database
pymongo
django
