How can I implement file upload logging in Django?

You can implement file upload logging in Django by using signals. Specifically, you can use the post_save signal to log details after a file is uploaded.

Can you show me a code example for that?

Sure! Here’s a simple example:

from django.db.models.signals import post_save
from django.dispatch import receiver
from .models import YourFileModel

@receiver(post_save, sender=YourFileModel)
def log_file_upload(sender, instance, created, **kwargs):
    if created:
        print(f'File uploaded: {instance.file.name}')

What if I want to log additional information like the user who uploaded the file?

You can modify the model to include a user field and log that information as well. Just ensure you pass the user when saving the instance.
