To upload files to the Blobstore of Google App Engine, a new file upload url has to be created for every upload request.
On server-side you need to create a handler, which creates these upload urls and returns them as response to the browser request:
from google.appengine.ext import blobstore
from google.appengine.ext import webapp
class UploadUrlHandler(webapp.RequestHandler):
def get(self):
upload_url = blobstore.create_upload_url('/path/to/upload/handler')
self.response.headers['Content-Type'] = 'application/json'
self.response.out.write('"' + upload_url + '"')
On client-side, you can override the add callback to retrieve the upload url and override the url setting, before adding the file to the upload queue:
$('#fileupload').fileupload({
add: function (e, data) {
var that = this;
$.getJSON('/upload-url-handler.json', function (url) {
data.url = url;
$.blueimpUI.fileupload.prototype
.options.add.call(that, e, data);
});
}
});
