Description:

djangomediafixturesnext 1.0.1

django-media-fixtures
Simple project to copy media files (intended for fixtures loads) to the file storage, pretty much as the django.contrib.staticfiles app does.
Hint: This is a fork of the original package which is no longer maintained


Changelog

1.0.1: Include PR to fix Django 4 smart_text exceptions



Dependencies

Python 3.5+
Django 1.8+

Note: The version (v1.x.x) dropped support of Python2! If you still need Python2, please check the last version of v0.1.x series


Installation
pip install django-media-fixtures==1.0.1
Then, add the django_media_fixtures app in your settings.INSTALLED_APPS:
INSTALLED_APPS = [
...,
'django.contrib.staticfiles',
'django_media_fixtures',
...
]


Usage
The app provides a management command collectmedia:
python manage.py collectmedia
This works similarly to collectstatic: finds the media_fixtures subdirectory in the apps directories, and copies those files to the settings.MEDIA_ROOT.
So, when you create your fixture (by any means, even through shell), put your file path matching the same tree folder layout as it should be in the MEDIA_ROOT destination.
For instance:
YourModel.objects.get_or_create(image="uploads/yourmodel/img/example.jpeg")
Where the file example.jpeg is found in yourappfolder/media_fixtures/uploads/yourmodel/img/example.jpeg. The collectmedia management command will copy this file to uploads/yourmodel/img/example.jpeg inside the settings.MEDIA_ROOT directory.


Configurations


MEDIA_FIXTURE_FOLDERNAME
You can change the media fixtures folder’s name on your apps, just putting this variable on settings.py.
MEDIA_FIXTURE_FOLDERNAME='my_media_fixtures_folder'




MEDIA_FIXTURES_FILES_FINDERS
You can change the media fixtures finders, to search media files on other folders not in-app, for instance.
MEDIA_FIXTURES_FILES_FINDERS = (
'django_media_fixtures.finders.FileSystemFinder', # combined with MEDIA_FIXTURES_FILES_DIRS, choose specific folders
'django_media_fixtures.finders.AppDirectoriesFinder', # default (if you do not set MEDIA_FIXTURES_FILES_FINDERS)
)




MEDIA_FIXTURES_FILES_DIRS
You can list specific media folders that you want to include on search.
MEDIA_FIXTURES_FILES_DIRS = [
"/home/user/myproject/mediafiles",
"/opt/webfiles/common/",
]
