Upload progress handler using cache framework

Ticket [#2070](http://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/2070) allows you to create your own file upload handlers. Here's an example handler that tracks a file's upload so you might display a progress meter after form submission. The snippet has two parts, the upload handler which tracks progress, and an upload_progress view used to report back to the browser. The upload handler uses [django's cache framework](http://www.djangoproject.com/documentation/cache/#the-low-level-cache-api) to store the data, which can then be retrieved by the view to send back to the browser. Note: Your form's http post request must have a query parameter (X-Progress-ID) sent along with it, which should contain a unique key to identify the upload. That key will also be sent with your ajax requests to the upload_progress view to retrieve the progress data. Setup: place the UploadProgressCachedHandler anywhere you like on the python path, and add to your settings.py: from django.conf import global_settings FILE_UPLOAD_HANDLERS = ('path.to.UploadProgressCachedHandler', ) + \ global_settings.FILE_UPLOAD_HANDLERS Set up the upload_progress view in any of your apps along with a corresponding entry in your urlconf. Here's some javascript example code to make the ajax requests and display the progress meter: <http://www.djangosnippets.org/snippets/679/> .

Easy file upload handler

This function emulates the file upload behaviour of django's admin, but can be used in any view. It takes a list of POST keys that represent uploaded files, and saves the files into a date-formatted directory in the same manner as a `FileField`'s `upload_to` argument.

Upload, Progressbar with sessions

This script is an adaptation from http://www.djangosnippets.org/snippets/678/ . Here, it doesnt use the cache middleware but relies on sessions. The script set a session cookie to identify the upload and track it to make it available for a progress bar like this one : http://www.djangosnippets.org/snippets/679/ . Note the progress bar cannot work with development server as it is single-threaded. Tested with apache/mod_python and mod_wsgi. any comments appreciated ;)
