[reportlab-users] how can i save PDF report into django model

[Asif Jamadar]

How can I save the dynamically generated PDF report into separate django model (database) as file.

I created model called 'Reports', in this model I defined a FileField.

In models.py

Class Report(models.Model):

file  = models.FileField(upload_to='uploads/documents)'


In views.py

                def  report(request):

         response = HttpResponse(mimetype='application/pdf')
                         response['Content-Disposition'] = 'attachment;filename=ANALYSIS_REPORT.pdf'
                        buffer = StringIO()
                       doc = SimpleDocTemplate(response)
                       ...................................................................
                      ....................................................................
                     doc.build(document)
                     pdf = buffer.getvalue()

                   myfile = ContentFile(pdf)
                   m = Report()
                  m.file.save('test.pdf', myfile)
                  return response

But the above code saves the EMPTY report.  So any advice on how to save the generated PDF report in django model
