django admin ajax file upload

[Olivier Dalang]

Hi !

Here we use Django admin as main input interface for our staff in the field.

Our models have image fields, where the staff directly loads images from the camera.

There are two main problems :

- the form is very slow to submit, as everything is uploaded at once, at the very end, even if taking the pictures is done first;

- if the form is invalid for any reason, the picture is lost, and must be taken again.

So I'm looking for an app to do ajax file upload. I had a look at those : https://djangopackages.org/grids/g/ajax-file-uploading/

But I didn't find one that :

- is maintained (django 1.9+)

- integrates into the admin

- doesn't rely on an external service provider (fineupload, uploadcare...)

Does such an app exist ?

Thanks !

Olivier
