Django File Uploads using path

Question

If I upload a file to my website via Ajax, and I have the path of it, is there a way I could submit this path to a Django form's built-in FileField?

Answer 1

I think you can construct a UploadedFile instance from file-like object, put it into dict {'name': temporary_uploaded_file} and provide it to form's files argument. Haven't tried it myself but should be working.
