Multiple images #79

Closed hvitis closed 1 year ago

hvitis commented 2 years ago

Hello,

I am using VueJS front-end plugin and DRF on backend. FE allows uploading drag-drop multiple images and I was thinking about expanding my 1 picture and making a gallery for a model.

Is it possible to save multiple images via DRF-filepond? I am using AWS

Yes.... but this is not really relevant to DRF-filepond. This is logic that will take place in your view, model or form.

Thanks for the question @hvitis. As @derek-adair says, I wonder if this is perhaps better handled via your backend configuration/code?

Effectively, you'd allow the frontend to upload all the images via filepond, with each image upload returning a unique ID for the temporary upload record generated. Then when you submit the upload of the gallery, you'd handle storing and grouping the individual uploads under perhaps a Gallery model or similar, which has references to all the StoredUpload objects related to that gallery. Hope that makes sense?
