I have a csv file that I want to send via curl to a Django Rest Framework API View I have developed. The csv file itself contains only foo,bar and this is the curl command I'm using:
curl URL -H 'Accept:
application/json' -H 'Referer: http://localhost:5011/ost:5011' -H
'User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_12_6)
AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/62.0.3202.94
Safari/537.36' -H 'Authorization: JWT TOKEN -H 'Content-Type:
multipart/form-data' -F [email protected]
When it hits my API View in Django, and I run
request.data.get('file').read()
the output is some metadata around the file and not the file contents itself:
(Pdb) b'--------------------------001ec735bfc1a929\r\nContent-
Disposition: form-data; name="upload";
filename="testcsv.csv"\r\nContent-Type: application/octet-
stream\r\n\r\n\r\n--------------------------001ec735bfc1a929--\r\n'
How can I access the actual file itself through this method? My APIview is using
class FileUploadView(APIView):
parser_classes = (MultiPartParser,)
Thanks!
