A while ago [https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/28184/ #28184]
introduced the ability to use callables as the `storage` parameter of the
`FileField`.
Someone even requested the ability to have the instance passed into the
callable: https://github.com/django/django/pull/8477/files#r226555624
But I believe @miigotu misinterpreted it and was thinking about a
`Storage` instance.
What could be great is the ability to pass the instance (and maybe the
filename too) similar to
[https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/4.1/ref/models/fields/#django.db.models.FileField.upload_to/
upload_to]
Example:
{{{
def get_storage(instance, filename):
if instance.is_private:
return PrivateStorage()
else:
...
}}}
This could allow the user to use a specific storage depending on the
instance being saved.
