Handle file upload with Deform + SqlAlchemy in Pyramid

[keesjan]

Possibly a newbie question (which I am), but I'm stuck.

I try to create a file upload form to store small binary (audio) files
in a DB.

I use Deform for my form which contains a FileUploadWidget. Great. But
after this I hit a brick wall. How to pass the data from Deform
filedict into a SqlAlchemy LargeBinary?

The 'fp' attribute is a file-like object, but the LargeBinary field
(actually its handler (?!) DBAPIBinary) expects a buffer. Maybe this
is solved with elementary Python stuff, but googling for "python file
to buffer" didn't lead to any helpful examples.

Any help is much appreciated.

Kind regards,

Keesjan

OK. It _was_ a newbie question. This link solved my problem:

My apologies for taking up your precious bandwidth. ;)
