Description
As described in django doc, it should be possible to override the default storage system.
from django.db import models from django.core.files.storage import FileSystemStorage fs = FileSystemStorage(location='/media/photos') class Car(models.Model): ... photo = models.ImageField(storage=fs)
Also, by default, the DefaultStorage
is the FileSystemStorage
in django.core.files.storage
But specifying storage at model field level is rising an exception see this code:
import datetime from django.core.files.storage import FileSystemStorage from django.db import models class ModelTest(models.Model): image = models.ImageField(upload_to='test', storage=FileSystemStorage) date_created = models.DateTimeField(default=datetime.datetime.now)
I'm getting the following exception at view level:
unbound method get_valid_name() must be called with FileSystemStorage instance as first argument (got unicode instance instead)
when I try to upload a file in the admin interface.
If I remove the storage
parameter, it works fine.

I was just gonna close that ticket and say I had a long day :)
Sorry about that.
You are passing the storage class as the argument, instead of an instance of the class, as described in the docs.
