I've use something like this:

class Car(models.Model):

        storage, path = self.photo.storage, self.photo.path

        super(Car, self).delete(*args, **kwargs)

        storage.delete(path)

Hi! I'm new to python and django(well, and web dev too).

I'm using python 2.7 and django 1.4

I went through the tutorial and then got issue with files managing.

I have model like this:

class Car(models.Model):

    #some fields

    photo = models.ImageField(upload_to='cars')

and media url/root configured in settings.py.

Also I have autogenerated django admin site.

Its works well and I can upload files to MEDIA_ROOT/cars/ automaticaly when adding new object to Car model, but when I delete or change that object from admin site old file doesnt deletes.

I need some easy and a good way to configure model/admin_site/something_else to delete old files from file system when i change/delete model object from admin site.

I think admin actions can be solution, but dont think it helps in case of changes and it cant help override "Delete" button from object edit page.

Thanks for your help!
