upload files to subdirectory

[AdrienLemaire]

@strayer hi, I was looking for a subdirectory option, but it seems it's not implemented in this package yet (related to #2)
We have the following use-case:

• Join https://bucket_url/ with file_path for static files
• Join https://bucket_url/uploads/ with file_path for media files.

Until now, I was juggling different data on local env (without gcloud storage) and staging where data paths were saved using /uploads/ prefix in db. But We messed up something, and staging data got saved in / , resulting in entities data being saved in 2 different locations (eg /uploads/users/1/image.jpg and /users/2/image.jpg).

I would like our data to behave consistently no matter the environment (ie do not save image paths with uploads/ prefix in db.

How would you go about uploading a file to https://bucket_url/uploads/users/3/image.jpg while saving /users/3/image.jpg in that user db row ?

Thanks for the support!
Cordially
Adrien

django-storages[google] has a GS_LOCATION setting available. I'm not sure yet how to only use that option when uploading files, but if there's no solution available in django-gcloud-storage, I'll try migrating to that other package :)

Hey, sorry for not responding last year :/ I initially planned to implement this, but never came around actually doing it, so there is a bit of unfinished code on this topic. This would be a useful feature, but I can't commit much time to this project for the time being. If anyone wants to help with this, feel free to open a pull request!
