django-galleryfield 1.5.0.dev0

Django AJAX upload widget and model field for multiple images, featuring drag & drop uploading, upload progress bar, sortable and croppable image gallery

Django model fields GalleryField with AJAX form widgets and for multiple images upload with progress bar. This package is NOT about how to elegantly render multiple images in a page, but how to CRUD multiple images in a model field, which makes it possible for easy permission control.

Features

• A model field GalleryField, and its formfield GalleryFormField along with the default widget GalleryWidget.

• Drag & drop file uploading via AJAX

• Uploading multiple images with progress bar

• Drag & drop reordering, client / server side crop before/after upload.

• Integrates with Django Admin.

• Each Image uploaded will be saved in an image model. That might be considered, by some user, a draw back. However, that makes it possible to delete the orphan images from the server (see in FAQ).
