Description

Describe what you were trying to get done.
Tell us what happened, what went wrong, and what you expected to happen.

What I Did

Paste the command(s) you ran and the output.
If there was a crash, please include the traceback here.

I'm using the Django's default file storage (django.core.files.storage.DefaultStorage). But you can change trough the setting FU_FILE_STORAGE.

I don't think we'll have a problem with django_fine_uploader.fineuploader.SimpleFineUploader, but I'm not sure about django_fine_uploader.fineuploader.ChunkedFineUploader. Specially: ChunkedFineUploader.combine_chunks.

Need to try django-fine-uploader with: https://github.com/jschneier/django-storages

We have the handlers: SimpleFineUploader and the ChunkedFineUploader.

I think it's better if I create a BaseFineUploader, it seems better for extending.

Will do this, and we will see.

Will update here, when we have basic support for python3.

I'm thinking about the flow when uploading, specially when the upload is chunked.

The Django's default file storage, if you didn't change it, is django.core.files.storage.FileSystemStorage.

And it makes sense, because when I'm using chunked upload, I can combine the chunks very fast. Otherwise, if I'm uploading, even the chunks to amazonS3, I have to download them all to combine them in to the final file. (If I'm not missing something that's the behaviour, right?)

So it seems to me that I have to provide something like a FU_FINAL_FILE_STORAGE setting, so you can set the storage for your final file to be stored, (your media files server, S3 mostly, I think).

And always(?) store the chunks with django.core.files.storage.FileSystemStorage, since they are all temporary files.

I'm gonna investigate this issue, if someone has something to offer, please share. =]
