hey.

I'm writing a my own module in odoo 11.

I want to get a file from user and save the file as a file (and not in my DB as binary or base64 cause the order of the file size is around 1 GigaBytes). so in my controller I call create method of my model (witch has a field like below):

image_file = fields.Binary(string="Your picture file", attachment=True)

but when calling it, I get a weird error which says:

TypeError: argument should be a bytes-like object or ASCII string, not 'FileStorage' - - -


it would be appreciated if you could tell me how can I save this file.

thanks.

The binary field only accepts the binary data of the file you want to upload.

So, convert your file into binary using base64 and then pass it to the binary field.

the problem is I want to save my file as a file, not as binary data of my file.

Is there a way to do that ?

Please check modules by MuK IT from there you can try to create for odoo11 but if you are using python 3, maybe you can just try it

Note: I'm not the author of the module
