Django file upload with FTP backend

Question

I want to upload my files based on the example Need a minimal Django file upload example, however I want to store the files not locally, but on another server with the use of FT

Answer 1

Try this

models.py

from storages.backends.ftp import FTPStorage
fs = FTPStorage()

settings.py

DEFAULT_FILE_STORAGE = 'storages.backends.ftp.FTPStorage'
FTP_STORAGE_LOCATION = 'ftp://user:password@localhost:21'

Answer 2

It looks like your import is wrong. If the file is named ftp.py the import should be:

from ftp import FTPStorage

Depending on where the file is relatively to your PYTHONPATH you might need to add more, e.g.:

from your_app.ftp import ...
