Question

I am making a model in which i have a FileField. I want to store the file content in a database column, instead of file path. Any suggestions?

Answer 1

it is very easy

just overide save method in admin

filecontent=form.cleaned_data.get('upload_file')  
data =filecontent.read()
from django.db import connection
cursor = connection.cursor()
cursor.execute("update filecontent set filecontent=(%s) where id=(%s)",[data,obj.id])
connection.connection.commit()
cursor.close()
connection.close()

this will store filecontent in db column filecontent of table filecontent
