How to download file using django as backend and nginx

Question

I have a filefield in a document model from which i can upload files like this

document=models.FileField(max_length=350 ,validators=[FileExtensionValidator(extensions)])

uploading is working good, now i want to implement download feature for the frontend, but only those files which are uploaded by the user.

using url method is think less secure,

another way i saw is creating download function in the views,

and another i saw using nginx i can implement.

Kindly guide me which method is best, and what steps to take to implement the download feature, and will i need docker too if i am using nginx?

Answer 1

i have found another way, there is a library which makes everything alot easier named as django_downloadview. it solved the problem for now lets see what happens in the future.
