I am using Google App Engine with python 2.7. And there is need to generate in-memory xls-file and send it to user for downloading.
I found amount of topics in web, but any of them can't help me. Related topics that I've tried to use: 1) this is with Blobs, I tried at first , 2) without Blob , 3) with force-download MIME type , also I've tried to use googlecloudstorage (can't find links to topics).
Here is my code:
import StringIO
class ExcelHandler(BaseHandler):
def post(self):
"""Save members to excel document and send to user"""
sheet = pyexcel.Sheet([[1, 2], [3, 4]])
filesheet = StringIO.StringIO()
sheet.save_to_memory('xls', filesheet)
filesheet.close()
self.response.write(sheet)
self.response.headers['Content-Type'] = 'application/force-download'
self.response.headers['Content-Transfer-Encoding'] = 'utf-8'
self.response.headers['Content-Disposition'] = 'attachment; filename=test.xlsx'
The problem is in sending response (not in creating file). I tried different 'Content-Type': 'application/vnd.ms-excel', 'application/download', 'application/force-download', 'application/octet-stream', 'application/vnd.openxmlformats - officedocument.spreadsheetml.sheet'
But the best response I've achieved is as on picture:
I can't enforce my browser to start downloading data from server. I guess there may be something in my Request that should say to server 'Hey, I want to download', but it is only my thoughts, I've not found anything about that. Will appreciate any help!
Here is also my Request:

EDIT 1: (try answer by voscausa)
Try this:
output = StringIO.StringIO()
.......
self.response.headers[b'Content-Type'] = b'application/vnd.ms-excel; charset=utf-8'
self.response.headers[b'Content-Disposition'] = b'attachment; filename=test.xlsx'
self.response.write(output.getvalue())
