Flask Extension implementing the Tus.io server protocol
As of May, 2020, I am using this code in a production enterprise application running on Google Compute Engine with Uppy as the frontend (Javascript client). YMMV, but I'm confident this can work. The code could use some work, but it does in fact work.
Currently flask-tus is reliant on a local redis server. This is used for caching information about uploads in progress. It is on the roadmap to remove this dependancy. You must install the redis python package for this extension to work.
pip install redis
Installation from source (this repository)
python setup.py install
Installation from PyPi repository (recommended for latest stable release)
pip install Flask-Tus
from flask import Flask, render_template, send_from_directory
from flask_tus import tus_manager
import os
app = Flask(__name__)
tm = tus_manager(app, upload_url='/file-upload', upload_folder='uploads/')tus_manager() registers two new url endpoint /file-upload and /file-upload/<resource>. You can not define views for those urls in your app. Simply use any tus client and point it to /file-upload as the endpoint
Building (local instructions for me
- python setup.py sdist
- twine upload
