How can i Open binary files with Django?

[Lucas Matos]

I tested so many ways to do it, however a only found how to open text files. Someone can help me?

You don't open files with django. You open files with the built-in function 'open'. Which allows you to specify text or binary mode. See the documentation: https://docs.python.org/3.11/library/functions.html#open

In my case i want to take the file with a input type file from a form, that is in binary, open it and convert it to a text file, identify its characteristics  and return  something based in its characteristics to the user.
Can i use this method (open) to do it ?
