django-mongo-storage 0.1

A mongo GridFS storage backend for django

A helper app for using MongoDB’s GridFS as a storage backend for django.

mongo_storage contents include:

models.py

• MongoFileMixin: a model mixin creating a MongoFileField called content

• MongoDeleteFileMixin: 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
