I found the following very useful script while Googleing: https://github.com/shanealynn/python_batch_geocode/blob/master/python_batch_geocoding.py
This script is just what I need and it works flawlessly when I run it locally on my computer. I have a small Django site, where I would like to use this script (non commercially). I do not need a full code example (even though if someone has example code, just post it, I will get trough it) but rather the steps to take to make use of such a script. I googled a lot concerning this the last days and got a lot of different answers and differenct scenarios. Non of them really wholly apply to this scenario though:
- Upload CSV
- Run Script
- Create Link/Make Download possible of newly created CSV
Is anyone out there who might be able to help me out?
Thanks in advance and best regards
edit: Here are the steps and the code I got up until now:
I pretty much followed the following tutorial: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/2.1/topics/http/file-uploads/
Here a my snippets:
forms.py
class UploadFileForm(forms.Form):
title = forms.CharField(max_length=50)
file = forms.FileField()
views.py
def geocode(request):
if request.method == 'POST':
form = UploadFileForm(request.POST, request.FILES)
if form.is_valid():
handle_uploaded_file(request.FILES['file'])
return HttpResponseRedirect('/success/url/')
else:
form = UploadFileForm()
return render(request, '../templates/data/geocode/index.html', {'form': form})
urls.py
urlpatterns = [
...
path('geocode', views.geocode, name='geocode')]
The File Upload shows up and I am able to pick a file. This is the step where I do not know what to do though. Do I need to save it in my database or can I just load it into the script somehow?
