Fields

File (Field)

A binary file field, it should only be used in an input schema.

Examples:

import os

from werkzeug.utils import secure_filename
from apiflask.fields import File


class Image(Schema):
    image = File()


@app.post('/images')
@app.input(Image, location='files')
def upload_image(data):
    f = data['image']
    # use `secure_filename` to clean the filename, notice it will only keep ascii characters
    filename = secure_filename(f.filename)
    f.save(os.path.join(the_path_to_uploads, filename))

    return {'message': f'file {filename} saved.'}
The file object is an instance of werkzeug.datastructures.FileStorage, see more details in the docs. # noqa: B950, E501

Use form_and_files location if you want to put both files and other normal fields in one schema.

import os

from werkzeug.utils import secure_filename
from apiflask.fields import String, File


class ProfileIn(Schema):
    name = String()
    avatar = File()

@app.post('/profiles')
@app.input(ProfileIn, location='form_and_files')
def create_profile(data):
    avatar_file = data['avatar']
    name = data['name']

    # use `secure_filename` to clean the filename, notice it will only keep ascii characters
    avatar_filename = secure_filename(avatar_file.filename)
    avatar_file.save(os.path.join(the_path_to_uploads, avatar_filename))

    profile = Profile(name=name, avatar_filename=avatar_filename)
    # ...
    return {'message': 'profile created.'}

In the current implementation, files location data will also include the form data (equals to form_and_files).

Version Added: 1.0

This field accepts the same keyword arguments that Field receives.
