Delete a BIN_FILE after upload

[dpla...@gmail.com]

Hi, 

I have a working file upload test that analyses an image, makes the results available to other tests, and also creates a PNG version of the uploaded DICOM file. 

I would like to be able to programmatically delete the original DICOM file from the QATrack+ server in the test code. Can anyone point me in the right direction? 

Thanks, 

David

I don't believe that's a current feature, but I will add it to the todo list.

Hi David,

technically you could delete the files from the file system, they are saved inside ~/web/qatrackplus/qatrack/media/uploads/testinstance/$id/$filename but only after you saved the files/submitted the testlist. This would brake the link to the file and hopefully not much more. The path is accessible via the API. That is probably not what you want.

What I am implementing at our site at the moment is replacing the Upload Tests with DICOM Q/R directly from our Aria DB. With this method the files are only stored temporary on the disk and are deleted when the python instance is closed. Maybe that would be a solution four you too.

My code for the DICOM Q/R with some instructions is hosted on github: pynetdicom_wrapper@github
