PyUploadcare: a Python library for Uploadcare

Uploadcare Python & Django integrations handle uploads and further operations with files by wrapping Upload and REST APIs.

Simple file uploads for the web are of most importance for us. Today, everyone is used to the routine of allowing users to upload their pics or attach resumes. The routine covers it all: installing image processing libraries, adjusting permissions, ensuring servers never go down, and enabling CDN.

This library consists of the Uploadcare API interface and a couple of Django goodies.

Simple as that, Uploadcare ImageField can be added to an existing Django project in just a couple of simple steps. This will enable your users to see the upload progress, pick files from Google Drive or Instagram, and edit a form while files are being uploaded asynchronously.

You can find an example project here.

    from django import forms
    from django.db import models

    from pyuploadcare.dj.models import ImageField
    from pyuploadcare.dj.forms import FileWidget, ImageField as ImageFormField


    class Candidate(models.Model):
        photo = ImageField(blank=True, manual_crop="")


    # optional. provide advanced widget options: https://uploadcare.com/docs/uploads/widget/config/#options
    class CandidateForm(forms.Form):
        photo = ImageFormField(widget=FileWidget(attrs={
            'data-cdn-base': 'https://cdn.super-candidates.com',
            'data-image-shrink': '1024x1024',
        }))
