Question

I have a Card Class.

class Card(db.Model):
    name = db.StringProperty(required = True)
    image = '''insert property here'''
    description = db.TextProperty(required = True)
    submitted = db.DateTimeProperty(auto_now_add = True)

How do I add an image to the class?

Answer 1

For binary data, you can use a BlobProperty (see docs here), making your code:

class Card(db.Model):
    name = db.StringProperty(required = True)
    image = db.BlobProperty()
    description = db.TextProperty(required = True)
    submitted = db.DateTimeProperty(auto_now_add = True)

You could then assign to your property as follows (assuming your image parameter from a user form is image; if not using a form, you can treat the image like you would other binary data):

my_card = Card()
# Other properties defined here...
my_image = self.request.get('image')
card.image = db.Blob(my_image)
my_card.put()
