I have a Doctype named Student Records in my frappe app in that i have a attach image field with the field name student_image i want to concatenate the student_name field to the file name on upload or after the document is written to the system also if i could provide a custom path to save the file. Thank you in advance

Hi @Parth_Vashista,
You can use the before_save method of your Student Records Doctype in your Frappe app. Here’s an example code snippet that should help you achieve this:
we just share the some scenario.
from frappe.utils.file_manager import save_file, get_file_name
class StudentRecords(Document):
def before_save(self):
if self.student_image:
file_name = get_file_name(self.student_image)
new_file_name = "{0}_{1}".format(self.student_name, file_name)
file_url = save_file(file_name=new_file_name, content=self.student_image,
dt=self.doctype, dn=self.name, folder="Student Records")
# Set the new file URL to the student_image field
self.student_image = file_url
the before_save method checks if the student_image field is not empty. If it is not empty, it gets the original file name using the get_file_name function from frappe.utils.file_manager. It then concatenates the student_name field to the file name and saves the new file using the save_file function from frappe.utils.file_manager.
Additionally, if you want to provide a custom path to save the file, you can specify the folder parameter in the save_file function. In the example above, the files will be saved in the “Student Records” folder. You can replace this with your preferred folder name or use a variable to set it dynamically.
I hope this helps!
Thank You!
class StudentApplication(Document):
def before_save(self):
if self.upload_image:
if isinstance(self.upload_image, File):
# get the file name from the file object
file_name = self.upload_image.name
else:
file_name = self.upload_image
# check if the file name starts with the expected string
if not file_name.startswith(("/files", "/private/files")):
frappe.throw("File path is not valid")
new_file_name = "{0}_{1}".format(self.student_name, os.path.basename(file_name))
frappe.msgprint(f"{new_file_name}")
file_path = frappe.get_site_path("public", "files")
new_file_path = new_file_name
frappe.msgprint(f"{new_file_path}")
file_url = save_file(fname=new_file_path, content=self.upload_image, dt=self.doctype, dn=self.name)
self.upload_image = file_url
frappe.msgprint(f"{file_url}")
getting this error do you have any idea for resolution
