Upload is fine, but resuming a paused upload is not working

[guilhermej]

• django-tus version: 0.1.0
• Django version: 1.11.3
• Python version: 3.5 64bit
• Operating System: Ubuntu 16.04

I'm trying to use your module with my Django and Uppy like the frontend uploader, using the TUS protocol. The upload is OK, but when I try to pause and resume the upload something wrong happens, the upload of the file restarts from beginning. The behavior I can notice is:

1. Uppy makes the post to start the upload
2. Uppy makes a patch to upload the file
3. When I pause, the patch requisition is cancelled
4. When I click in resume, Uppy makes a head requisition but the offset returned is 0
5. Makes a patch, but starting from 0.

Can you help me to find the problem?

same problem here with Django version: 2.10 . tusjs client which is working correctly with nodejs server given by tus but not working with django server .

I was able to make it work in the local Django server by editing the code in patch method in the views.py:

finally:
    file.seek(file_offset)
    file.write(request.body)
    file.close()

I add the line chunk_size = len(request.body)

The final code is this:

finally:
    file.seek(file_offset)
    file.write(request.body)
    chunk_size = len(request.body)
    file.close()

This is working just in the local Django server, but this not work in Apache/WSGI production server, because when pause the upload, the connection is closed and Django raises a UnreadablePostError, and the patch method is not called, so I will try in another type of server like a Nginx/Gunicorn.

P.S.: I'm using the GIT code, not the pip module.
