I have previously covered how to upload large files with dropzone.js, but it didn’t allow for parallel chunk uploads. In this article we will go over that new addition, as well as several other improvements.
Download the final executable or view github to see all the code now if you don’t want to read the article.
This is the final result for now, and can be customized if you so chose. Obviously I’m no graphic design, but I’d pick function over style anyway.
Design
Before we dive into code, lets think about the design. We will need to somehow handle multiple parts of a single file being uploaded at the same time in a random order. How do we keep track of that?
Thankfully, Dropzone will provide the server with a few different pieces of information which each chunk, they include:
- dzuuid – unique ID per upload file
- dzchunkindex – the chunk number of the current upload
- dztotalfilesize – Total size of the upload
- dzchunksize – Max size per chunk
- dztotalchunkcount – The number of chunks in this file
- dzchunkbyteoffset – The place in the file this chunk starts
In my mind there are two clear ways to approach the problem. First option is to create a sparse file of the full size to start with, using dztotalchunkcount and then with every incoming chunk, set the position of the file using dzchunkbyteoffset and write the data starting there.
The advantage of this method is that it only requires a single file on disk. The disadvantage is you have to worry about multiple threads accessing the same file at the same time.
The second choice is to write each chunk to a separate file, then when they are all uploaded concatenate them all to a single file and remove the individual chunks. The disadvantage are that that you require twice the space for a short time, and have to deal with cleanup of temporary files.
I personally preferred the second option, as it seemed a bit safer.
Upload Function
As a quick warning, I am now using Bottle instead of Flask for this upload, so a bit of the form syntax has changed since the last post.
from pathlib import Path
from threading import Lock
from collections import defaultdict
import shutil
import uuid
from bottle import route, run, request, error, response, HTTPError, static_file
from werkzeug.utils import secure_filename
lock = Lock()
chucks = defaultdict(list)
chunk_path = Path(__file__).parent / "chunks"
storage_path = Path(__file__).parent / "storage"
chunk_path.mkdir(exist_ok=True, parents=True)
storage_path.mkdir(exist_ok=True, parents=True)
@route("/upload", method="POST")
def upload():
file = request.files.get("file")
if not file:
raise HTTPError(status=400, body="No file provided")
dz_uuid = request.forms.get("dzuuid")
if not dz_uuid:
# Assume this file has not been chunked
with open(storage_path / f"{uuid.uuid4()}_{secure_filename(file.filename)}", "wb") as f:
file.save(f)
return "File Saved"
# Chunked download
try:
current_chunk = int(request.forms["dzchunkindex"])
total_chunks = int(request.forms["dztotalchunkcount"])
except KeyError as err:
raise HTTPError(status=400, body=f"Not all required fields supplied, missing {err}")
except ValueError:
raise HTTPError(status=400, body=f"Values provided were not in expected format")
# Create a new directory for this file in the chunks dir, using the UUID as the folder name
save_dir = chunk_path / dz_uuid
if not save_dir.exists():
save_dir.mkdir(exist_ok=True, parents=True)
# Save the individual chunk
with open(save_dir / str(request.forms["dzchunkindex"]), "wb") as f:
file.save(f)
# See if we have all the chunks downloaded
with lock:
chucks[dz_uuid].append(current_chunk)
completed = len(chucks[dz_uuid]) == total_chunks
# Concat all the files into the final file when all are downloaded
if completed:
with open(storage_path / f"{dz_uuid}_{secure_filename(file.filename)}", "wb") as f:
for file_number in range(total_chunks):
f.write((save_dir / str(file_number)).read_bytes())
print(f"{file.filename} has been uploaded")
shutil.rmtree(save_dir)
return "Chunk upload successful"
if __name__ == "__main__":
run(server="paste")
Hopefully the code is decently self documented. We do a few checks at the start as we pull in the required parameters. Then we prepare the directory for where the temporary chunks will be stored, and write the incoming chunk there. We gather information on all the chunks and when then have been completed in a global dictionary, and when they are all uploaded they are assembled into the final file.
File Downloading
Now that we can put files on the server, what about getting them back? I personally don’t want people to host random files on my server, but others may. To accomplish that, we shouldn’t just list all the files to everyone that visits the site, but only to whoever uploaded it. Thankfully we can just store the uuid in a cookie on the frontend, and then have a very basic download function.
@route("/download/<dz_uuid>")
def download(dz_uuid):
for file in storage_path.iterdir():
if file.is_file() and file.name.startswith(dz_uuid):
return static_file(file.name, root=file.parent.absolute(), download=True)
return HTTPError(status=404)
This does complicate our frontend a bit, as we want to save both UUID and filename as text fields in a cookie. There are a lot of great libraries out there to make life easier with JavaScript and cookies, but I wanted to keep it simple and pure JS other than Dropzone, making the code a bit more complicated than last time.
Dropzone frontend
Instead of being a standalone file, I have also put this directly into the python file to make using it as a f-string a lot easier, but makes it a little harder to read.

Favicon
Now this is getting into the realm of silly. But to be an all in one script, we need to provide a binary file (the favicon) in the script itself. Thankfully ico files can be compressed rather easily, so we are going to compress it in the script itself, and decompress it when requested.
