I'm trying to make an exercise from Udacity's Full Stack Foundations course. I have the do_POST method inside my subclass from BaseHTTPRequestHandler, basically I want to get a post value named message submitted with a multipart form, this is the code for the method:
def do_POST(self):
try:
if self.path.endswith("/Hello"):
self.send_response(200)
self.send_header('Content-type', 'text/html')
self.end_headers
ctype, pdict = cgi.parse_header(self.headers['content-type'])
if ctype == 'multipart/form-data':
fields = cgi.parse_multipart(self.rfile, pdict)
messagecontent = fields.get('message')
output = ""
output += "<html><body>"
output += "<h2>Ok, how about this?</h2>"
output += "<h1>{}</h1>".format(messagecontent)
output += "<form method='POST' enctype='multipart/form-data' action='/Hello'>"
output += "<h2>What would you like to say?</h2>"
output += "<input name='message' type='text'/><br/><input type='submit' value='Submit'/>"
output += "</form></body></html>"
self.wfile.write(output.encode('utf-8'))
print(output)
return
except:
self.send_error(404, "{}".format(sys.exc_info()[0]))
print(sys.exc_info() )
The problem is that the cgi.parse_multipart(self.rfile, pdict) is throwing an exception: TypeError: can't concat bytes to str, the implementation was provided in the videos for the course, but they're using Python 2.7 and I'm using python 3, I've looked for a solution all afternoon but I could not find anything useful, what would be the correct way to read data passed from a multipart form in python 3?
