anvil.media Module
Classes
TempFile
Create a temporary file initialised with the contents of the provided media, if any.
Constructor
TempFile([media])
Instance Methods
__enter__() → string
__exit__()
TempUrl
Creates a temporary client-side URL for a Media object, even if the media has no permanent URL. This URL should be revoked when you are finished with it. If you use TempUrl as a context manager (‘with TempUrl(media) as url:’), this happens automatically; if you instantiate it manually you must call ‘revoke()’ on the instance.
The download argument only affects LazyMedia objects
