Django smart media¶
A suit of tools to use a FileField to upload image with light SVG support, include thumbnail preview in field and a template tag around sorl-thumbnail library.
Dependancies¶
Python>=3.8;
Django>=3.2,<4.2;
sorl-thumbnail>=12.9.0;
Overview¶
Concretely this contains:
Form widgets to build HTML for a
FileField
either with or without clearable mode. Both mode have a version to include needed layout assets (CSS and Javascript) and another one without assets;Form fields which already set a “smart” widget;
Templates to build the widgets HTML;
CSS and Javascript for the widget layout;
Field validator;
Model signals to purge stale files;
Model field with all “smart” features;
A template tag to make thumbnail safely with SVG image (original SVG is just used without Sorl raising issue for a non bitmap image);
Some helpers to ease some specific implementations;
Although this can work with ImageField
, SVG support will only work with
FileField
since ImageField
rely on PIL that does not support SVG format.
