How to upload multiple Images using DJango Rest Framework?
(3 answers)
Closed 2 years ago.
I am trying to upload multi-images to a single post which currently I am being able to upload only single image and get the confirmation through API. How can I make this to multi upload ?
My models.py
from django.db import models
# Create your models here.
class UploadedImage(models.Model):
img = models.ImageField('Uploaded Image', upload_to='images') # stores uploaded image
dt_created = models.DateTimeField(auto_now_add=True, verbose_name='Created')
my serializers.py
from rest_framework import serializers
from .models import UploadedImage
class UploadedImageSerializer(serializers.ModelSerializer):
class Meta:
model = UploadedImage
fields = ('pk', 'img', 'dt_created')
my viewsets.py
from django.shortcuts import render
from rest_framework import viewsets
from imageUpload.serializers import UploadedImageSerializer
from imageUpload.models import UploadedImage
# Create your views here.
class UploadImageViewset(viewsets.ModelViewSet):
queryset = UploadedImage.objects.all()
serializer_class = UploadedImageSerializer

you can do this
My models.py
from django.db import models
# Create your models here.
class UploadedImage(models.Model):
img = models.ImageField('Uploaded Image', upload_to='images') # stores uploaded image
dt_created = models.DateTimeField(auto_now_add=True, verbose_name='Created')
my serializers.py
from rest_framework import serializers
from .models import UploadedImage
class UploadImagesSerializer(serializers.Serializer):
# here we limit how maximum the image is
img = serializers.ImageField()
img1 = serializers.ImageField(required=False)
img2 = serializers.ImageField(required=False)
def create(self, validated_data):
create = YourModel(img=validated_data.get("img"))
create.save()
if validated_data.get("img1"):
create = YourModel(img=validated_data.get("img1"))
create.save()
....
return create
class UploadedImageSerializer(serializers.ModelSerializer):
class Meta:
model = UploadedImage
fields = ('pk', 'img', 'dt_created')
my viewsets.py
from django.shortcuts import render
from rest_framework import viewsets
from imageUpload.serializers import UploadedImageSerializer, UploadImagesSerializer
from imageUpload.models import UploadedImage
from rest_framework import parsers
# Create your views here.
class UploadImageViewset(viewsets.ModelViewSet):
queryset = UploadedImage.objects.all()
serializer_class = UploadedImageSerializer
parser_class = [parsers.JSONParser, parsers.MultiPartParser,]
def create(self, request):
serializer = UploadImagesSerializer(data=request.data)
if serializer.is_valid():
serializer.save()
