[bussiere bussiere]

Does anyone tried to store only Base64 info in databse of an image
instead of a file with django image field ?

Do you have any idea how to do it ?

Or some hints to give me ?

Hi

I had similar situation where a textfield (which was made a markup editor by applying css and all) was given where people come in write anything and discuss about their topics; you can imagine like a forum.
So i made some regular expressions to allow videos to show in an iframe and image to open up in a fancy box.
Your case is similar to my case where image has to be shown in a fancy box when a user clicks on that.


So i had to use jquery like this:-

Step 1) Write the importing scripts line in base.html

Step 2) Textfield which i was showing  on templates put a class and then call this jquery. Luckily that solved my problem
<script>
$(document).ready(function(){
    $("a.fancybox").fancybox({type:'image'});
});
 </script>

Hope that helps you.

are you sure this is actually a good idea?

in almost all cases serving the image via the actual web server, whose job it is to serve images, is the best idea.

either way, you wouldn't use an image field to store base64 data. that's for references to actual files in a filesystem.

first you'd need to convert the image to base64. then store that in a textfield. keep in mind there's going to be size limits with that.

i'd read:

https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.4/topics/http/file-uploads/ if you're dealing with uploads from a client's browser

otherwise just standard file objects will work

and then

http://docs.python.org/library/base64.html

re: nikhil, i'm not sure how jquery or any of that is relevant,

Thanks all

But there is nothing to do it from imagefield directly ?
Because if someone use the admin interface ?
(mayber i've misread what you gave).

regards
