How to use CloudinaryField to accept images/url from other sources?

Open abkiran opened this issue 4 years ago • 2 comments

I used Django package cloudinary==1.19.1

models.py

class Category(models.Model):
    name = models.CharField(max_length=255)
    url = models.CharField(max_length=255)
    image = CloudinaryField(null=True)
    image_source=models.CharField()

I want to use the image field to accept images that uploaded from admin, also some of my background tasks add the image URLs to that field depends on the image_source.

Possible image sources are: Google, Facebook, cloudinary or CloudFront

For example: When the image source is from google, I just want to save the complete image URL() instead of uploading the actual image to cloudinary and saving the id

How do I achieve this?

@abkiran Are you running into an issue with your current implementation? It seems like what you have should work since you have a url field and a nullable image field for Cloudinary images.

@brian-cloudinary url field is to store the auto generated slug,

My question was can I store the image URL of different source in to the image field
